Synopsis

This bestselling practical handbook tells you all you need to know about life story work.

Life story work is a vitally important task for children who are fostered, adopted or in kinship care. Losing track of the past can make it difficult for children to develop emotionally and socially. Life story work helps give back some of this past.

This straightforward, practical guide tells you all you need to know about life story work with children - the whys, whats, hows and whens of how to successfully work with children. The expert authors take you through easy-to-use creative techniques for everyone from beginners to experienced carers and social workers. A range of case studies show successful life story work in action. The guide provides a rich and creative treasure trove of techniques and exercises for adults working with children in different settings.

This edition includes contributions on digital life story work with children and adolescents, and using life story work in rehabilitation situations and where unmediated contact has taken place via social media.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Children separated from their birth families are often denied the opportunity to know about their past and to clarify past events in terms of the present. Losing track of the past can make it difficult for them to develop both emotionally and socially. The technique discussed in this volume, 'life story work', can be used by adults to help prevent this to vulnerable children.
