Child protection is one of the most challenging and at times frustrating fields of practice in the human services. In Helping Abused Children and their Families Chris Trotter explains what works and what doesn't work in child protection. Drawing on a major study and current international research, he shows that rates of re-abuse and client and worker satisfaction can be improved with an evidence-based approach to intervention. He develops his research based practice model, including role clarification, problem solving, pro-social modelling and client-worker relationship skills. Using case studies, Trotter shows how this model can be used in a range of situations. Helping Abused Children and Their Families is an invaluable reference for child protection workers and for students. It will also appeal to readers interested in an evidence-based approach to work in child welfare and child protection. 188 pages. Quantity Available: 1. Shipped Weight: Under 1 kilogram.
