Abstract: As social work continues to develop in China, particularly with the establishment of the Society Work Department of the CPC Central Committee, macro social work is increasingly demonstrating its significant value. Macro social work emphasizes a holistic perspective and intervention in social issues, focusing on social structural problems and adopting a comprehensive approach that aligns with the professional advancement of social work and the social transformation in this country. Based on the in-depth analysis of local context, it is evident that county-level social work serves as a crucial pathway for macro social work in China, and plays a vital role in the overall development of China’s social work in the new stage. Guided by the theory of macro social work, county-level social work needs to insist on principles that including being goal-oriented, guided by planning, integrated with specific characteristics, focused on promoting practice, and enhancing capabilities. It is also crucial to establish a system mechanism to foster the high-quality development of social work in China.
