Task Groups

Task Groups is a type of group work in which an interdependent collection of individuals is convened primarily to accomplish a specific, externally defined task or set of tasks—such as planning, problem solving, decision making, or policy development—rather than to pursue members’ personal growth, education, or therapeutic change.
