Supporting Adult Care-Leavers: International Good Practice

Autor Suellen Murray
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 15 dec 2015
Growing up in care is not just a part of childhood, but can have ongoing impacts across a person’s life. Various inquiries have revealed accounts of abuse and neglect, and a fracturing of family relationships. Organized thematically to allow comparison of different initiatives, this book considers the range of responses to adult care-leavers in Australia, Canada, Ireland, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom. Initiatives examined include public inquiries, symbolic acknowledgements, redress schemes, specialist support services, access to personal records, and family reunification programs. Featuring detailed case studies and examples of good practice, this is an excellent international source book for practitioners and policy makers in social work and social care.

Recenzii

“An ambitious book on an immensely significant but often marginalized topic. Murray's respectful, accessible, and compassionate writing provides a foundation for cross pollination of policy ideas and practices. A must-read."

“A pioneering work in the largely uncharted, and vast, territory of life after care. In bringing together diverse areas of existing work, this valuable book will be welcomed by a global audience.”
