Integrating Human Service Law and Practice assists human service students and workers in understanding their legal rights, obligations, and responsibilities, as well as familiarising them with some areas of substantive law relevant to human service delivery. 'Key Points for Practice' and 'Practice Questions and Responses' demonstrate the application of legal issues in professional practice. With an emphasis on the decision-making of human-service workers, this book aims to help students gain an understanding of the law which enables them to enlist it to get the best outcomes for themselves and their clients. Students will be able to challenge the law knowledgably, if appropriate, to pursue a social justice agenda. Throughout the book, the potential for positive interaction between legal imperatives and quality practice is reiterated.
