Social Work with Children by Liz Trinder
How can social workers enable vulnerable children to have a voice in the complex systems designed to protect them and promote their welfare? How can children be helped to make sense of complicated and disrupted lives? This core text addresses these and other challenging questions, setting out the principles and practice of social work with children and demonstrating the diversity of the work through carefully chosen case material. It will be essential reading for all social workers in training and practice involved with children.
'This is research made accessible and relevant for social work practiceThe authors' style is fluent and direct as befits a book which is concerned with intelligent, informed and sensitive intervention. I liked Social Work with Children; it is readable, compassionate and full of helpful insights. As a book for students, it usefully summarizes legal and policy frameworks, particularly with reference to the Children Act, and points to their relevance for practice. It thus provides a coherent account of good child care in one easy-to-read volume.' - Child and Family Social Work
