Description

Safeguarding Young People: Risk, Rights, Resilience and Relationships by Dez Holmes provides an accessible and invaluable resource for professionals working with young people facing risk and harm. This book explores the complexity of contemporary adolescent safeguarding, highlighting evidence-informed practice and innovation in this area. It covers key themes such as the nature of harms faced by some young people, pitfalls of professional responses, and the current legal framework for safeguarding outside the family home. The author argues for a holistic, systemic response that addresses structural disadvantage and incorporates participatory and trauma-informed practice to promote resilience. Ideal for practitioners, managers, and strategic leaders in this field, as well as social work courses or professional development programmes on adolescent safeguarding practice, this book offers a person-centred, evidence-informed, and rights-based approach to safeguarding young people.
