Cultural Diversity in Child Protection by Siobhan E Laird
Racial, ethnic and religious diversity requires social workers to safeguard children and support families from many different minority backgrounds. This innovative book is based on an analysis of Serious Case Reviews (Child Safeguarding Practice Reviews) involving issues of race, ethnicity and faith. The authors examine face-to-face social work practice with children, parents, their partners and other family members from black and minority ethnic backgrounds. Throughout, they identify common mistakes in practice, and detail culturally competent responses to often challenging child protection situations. Students and practitioners are supported in the development of their own knowledge and skills through a series of reflective exercises and worked case examples.
Dr. Siobhan E. Laird qualified as a social worker in 1994 and became Head of Social Work at the University of Ghana in 1998. She is associate professor at the Centre for Social Work, University of Nottingham. Dr. Prospera Tedam was principal lecturer in social work and practice quality at Anglia Ruskin University. Appointed to the Family Returns Panel of the Home Office, she has advised on child safeguarding matters.
