Recenzii
"Adam McCormick has written a groundbreaking book on a population in child welfare that has been overlooked for far too long: lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and questioning youth in the foster care system. Working in the field of child welfare for 30 years, I can say with confidence that McCormick’s book is a must read for anyone engaged in practice, policy, or research in child welfare."
Maria Scannapieco, PhD, MSW, Distinguished University Professor, Director, Center for Child Welfare, School of Social Work, University of Texas at Arlington
"It is an honor to provide some insight into this incredible book. The author's thorough review and expertise on the topic, along with the true personal experiences of the youth highlighted in this book, make it a must read for everyone working or volunteering with youth with LGBTQ backgrounds. Excellent book, Adam."
Irene Clements, Executive Director, National Foster Parent Association
"This book should be required reading for child welfare professionals. Through research and case studies, Dr. McCormick presents a compelling case for how LGBTQ youth are particularly vulnerable and how the current system too frequently fails them. Social workers will find this to be both an educational resource and a solution-focused tool. Dr. McCormick identifies specific opportunities for practice improvement geared toward direct-care professionals as well as leaders concerned with systemic change."
