Residential Child Care by Mono Chakrabarti
Reflecting current political and policy priorities, this book focuses on new developments designed to promote these family and network relationships. The book examines both care policies and individual schemes which involve families and other network members in the planning and care of children looked after in residential units or children's homes.
The opening two chapters by Malcolm Hill, who leads the Centre for the Child and Society at the University of Glasgow are, as ever, good value and a godsend to students…if residential care is going to survive in the UK we urgently need fresh ideas and constant reminders of how it is organised elsewhere - examples are contained within this book. -- British Journal of Social Work
