Synopsis
Already a comprehensive introduction to community and individual and group child and family welfare policies and practice in the United States, the Seventh Edition of Child Welfare and Family Services by Susan Whitelaw Downs, Ernestine Moore, Emily Jean McFadden, Susan Michaud, and Lela B. Costin continues to provide a strong historical context for understanding current programs, issues, and policy decisions with an expanded treatment of the legal framework of child welfare services and practice. New and updated information for child welfare and family service professionals include child well-being, outcomes, abuse and neglect prevention, and safety along with forensic interviewing, U.S. Supreme Court decisions, federal legislation including AFSA and TANF, statistical updates from the 2000 U.S. Census, and documentation for court. Other topics include child welfare in a global context, issues relating to immigration and refugees, cultural competence including services to gay/lesbian children and families, and the relation of substance abuse and domestic violence to child welfare. As in earlier editions, the book takes a comprehensive approach to child and family services and policies, covering preventive services, day care and child development programs, income security, juvenile justice, and advocacy as well as thorough treatment of protective services, kinship care, family preservation, and adoption. This readable yet all-inclusive book is a must for all child welfare and family service workers!, Intended for use in collaborative programs bringing together public child welfare agencies and schools of social work, this textbook takes a deliberately broad approach to child services. Chapters concentrate on topics like rights and responsibilities, the prevention of maltreatment, day care and ch

    Although this book was not as described, with no picture of it in the listing, the seller communicated well and quickly gave me a full refund while letting me keep it. The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.

    I've ordered several items from this vendor now and they've always been what they were advertised as. This was no exception. Both discs were in great shape as well as their jewel cases. Delivery is good, packaging is simple but effective for what you're paying and I haven't had any get damaged. Will keep buying from this vendor because of the results so far and good prices, too.
