520			_aThis article presents a case study of policy practice in action. It reviews the place of policy practice and advocacy in the social work profession and education and reports on a state-level example of collaboration between advocacy groups and academics to promote socially just welfare policies. After years of relatively progressive welfare policies in Maine, a conservative governor and legislature passed the State’s first 60-month time limit law in 2011. The author conducted research documenting the impact of the law and used the findings in legislative advocacy, thereby modeling for her students the importance of the policy practice role.
