Working With Children, Adolescents, and Their Families, Third Edition
Book details
Summary
Description
Updated and new, this practice text has both US and UK authors of distinction. It targets working with children and their families in the context of their daily lives - in their homes, families, and communities. The authors use a problem-solving approach to provide helping strategies for a
variety of problems and problem behaviors that occur in families. Professors Harper-Dorton and Herbert take into account current pressures for short-term care, attention to measuring outcomes, family permanency, and various family structures and support systems that include mentoring and empowering
families for their lifelong journey in their communities and homes.
This latest edition retains the merits of the earlier editions but is enhanced by expanded coverage of cross-cultural issues, family mentoring, and problems specific to adolescence.
