Abstract: |
This book looks at the changing context of children and young people's services heralded by the structural, organisational and funding changes put forward in Eileen Munro's Review of Child Protection. It is strongly grounded in research and theory, and gives specific consideration to how systems theory can help practitioners in understanding families. It highlights the need for every social work practitioner to develop the capacity to undertake unified assessments and interventions in a wide variety of settings with individuals, families, and groups where there are child protection and safeguarding concerns. The book is comprised of 3 parts: practice implications of theoretical and philosophical foundations; dilemma and challenges in applying systems theory in practice; and creating the difference that makes a difference. Case studies, interactive activities, summaries and guidance are all included. The book is likely to be of interest to social work students and qualified social work practitioners, as well as all those involved in the field of child protection. |
