Abstract
This research originated from a focus group which the student was part of as a research assistant.
The focus group concentrated on LGBT aging and care where participants who are HIV positive
spoke about their concerns. The Anti Oppressive practice was deemed suitable for this study as
it gives charity on social justice movements as the major roots necessitating the emergence of
anti-oppressive practice in social work (Wilson & Beresford, 2000; Thompson, 2002, 2003).
Social work, in being a unique profession, contains several distinct approaches and philosophies
regarding care, what it constitutes and how to stop or slow social problems that generate the
need for care. The project was funded by the National Research Fund.
