Abstract：In addition to women who are by far the majority of social workers and their clients， social work also carries the meanings of “delicate， caring， inclusive”and other soft social governance． This attribute is significant for preventing and coping with current issues with women and marriage ＆ family in China． Thus， in response to feminist social work and family social work in Europe and the United States， this paper advocates a social work that is compatible with the local context of women and marriage ＆ family，mainly related to work by Women's Federation，neighborhood support and professional social work． According to analyses of these three aspects，work by Women's Federation still plays a main role． However，because of its administrative function that has weakened its service function， it no longer plays a real role due to a lack of professionalism and mobility． Neighborhood help，which is an important supplement， continues to be impacted by modernity and is showing a lower level， fragmented， temporary existence and even tends to disappear． Professional social work is a burgeoning science， it promises expressive and realistic abilities to deal with problems，but the localization is still an arduous problem． What is needed is to create a system to integrate administrative function， voluntarism and professionalism into one．
