Description
Helping you become a competent and ethical youth worker is at the heart of this comprehensive textbook. Divided into three parts, it provides an understanding of and commitment to the principles of youth work, explores how contexts shape youth work, and demonstrates core practice skills required to make a meaningful impact on young people's lives.
Engaging and practice-driven, this book includes case-studies, tasks, further reading, and reflective questions to help you make connections between your own knowledge and practice. It's an essential text for all students learning about working with young people, whether on youth work or allied courses.
