Integrating perspectives from child welfare and trauma literatures, this book helps practitioners understand and address the needs of maltreated children and adolescents, and their families. It helps in learning how to conduct assessments and implement helping strategies, with youth in foster care and other settings.
Until recently, there has not been a great deal of overlap in the child welfare and trauma literatures. This text bridges that divide by integrating perspectives from both fields to help practitioners understand and address the special needs of maltreated children and adolescents and their families. Current knowledge on attachment, trauma, and risk and resilience is clearly explained, including the impact of abuse on the brain. Readers learn how to conduct assessments and implement a range of effective helping strategies with youth in foster care and other settings. Featuring extensive case illustrations, the book gives particular attention to diversity issues and the importance of supporting child and family strengths.
