Description
Effective Communication with Children and Young People is Key to Making a Difference In today's Children's Services, direct practice with children and young people has become a crucial aspect of policy and practice. To truly make a positive impact on their lives, practitioners must be able to engage, relate to, and communicate with children and young people themselves. This book, written by an experienced practitioner and educator, provides essential knowledge and skills for student social workers and other practitioners to update their practice. Key skills such as forming relationships, understanding non-verbal communication, breaking bad news, and communicating within family groupings are explored in the context of professional roles and tasks, including assessment, involving young people in decision-making and planning, and working with children in care. By equipping practitioners with the knowledge and capabilities needed for effective practice, this textbook aims to support practitioners in making a real difference in the lives of children and young people.
