Treating Families and Children in the Child Protective System: Strategies for Systemic Advocacy and Family Healing: Routledge Series on Family Therapy and Counseling

Autor Wes Crenshaw
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 24 noi 2015
Written by a psychologist who has worked with families and foster children for 11 years, Treating Families and Children in the Child Protective System is designed for therapists, social workers, family preservationists, court officers, attorneys, judges, and others caught up in the interplay of child protection. Using theory and compelling case studies, the author posits child abuse as an ultimate form of family injustice, requiring intervention at every level of the system. The author proposes a critically optimistic stance, approaching each case as a family-friend with practical and powerful tools to direct the overwhelming power of the system into a force for the restoration of family justice.
