A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This clear and comprehensive text shows social work students and practitioners how to make psychosocial assessments and plan interventions based on a solid understanding of the child's needs. Illustrated with detailed case examples, the volume covers a variety of different helping methods, including family?centered approaches, working through children's groups, working one?to?one with individual children, and working in collaboration with schools. Special attention is given to the needs of children dealing with family violence, substance?disordered families, placement in foster care, being in "the middle" of child custody suits, deaths in the family, immigration, and adoption. Throughout, readers gain valuable insight into specific helping techniques as well as an appreciation for the diverse roles of the social worker/counselor. This book will be of value to students of social work, as well as practitioners wishing to bring the most up?to?date knowledge and skills to their work with children. It serves as an ideal text for use in undergraduate courses in child welfare and social work practice, and graduate?level courses in social work with children, advanced practice, and child abuse and family violence.
