ABOUT THE BOOK
Focusing on how child protection professionals can build partnerships with parents where there is suspected or substantiated child abuse or neglect, this book brings the solution-oriented model to child protection work. Providing practical strategies for building a partnership with parents, it aims to prevent abuse and family dissolution. It expands the investigation of risk to encompass signs of safety that can be built upon to stabilize and strengthen the child's and family's situation.
"If you work in the field of Child Protection/Family Services and feel discouraged and/or burned out, this is a must read. I read it on vacation last week, I could not put it down! It is well written and provides lots of case examples. The material is especially appealing and accessible if one is familiar with Solution Focused Brief Therapy principles. Bravo and well done to the authors!"
