Description
Family Group Conferences in Child Welfare by Peter Marsh and Gill Crow provides a practical guide for professionals working with families affected by child abuse or care needs. This book explores the development and implementation of Family Group Conferences, examining their role in promoting positive links between children and their families. The authors draw on research and social services experience to examine the context, origins, and practice of these conferences. They also gather views from families, social workers, and other professionals on the practicalities of managing Family Group Conferences and their outcomes. Real-life examples are included to illustrate the application of this approach in different situations. By understanding the theory and practice behind Family Group Conferences, professionals can develop effective strategies for supporting children and families within their own homes, rather than removing them from their environments.
