Hoarding is a serious, time-consuming, and expensive problem for
virtually every community across the United States. First
responders often encounter hoarding unexpectedly and are confused
about how to resolve the wide range of problems, from public health
and fire safety violations, to housing violations, to concern for
the welfare of children, elders and animals. Sometimes solutions
must be coordinated across several human service disciplines. The
first of its kind, this handy guide is a nuts and bolts resource
filled with case studies, tips and strategies, and easy-to-use
suggestions for professionals responding to hoarding situations.
Organized around the common ways hoarding captures the attention of
social service providers, this user-friendly guide provides tools
to assess the problem, to coordinate and delegate tasks among
helping professionals, and to work directly with reluctant hoarders
and those affected by the hoarding. Chapters give hands-on guidance
and decision trees for who should be involved and what strategies
are needed for each case. This book is compassionate and
comprehensive, an invaluable reference for social workers and human
service providers in a broad range of fields.
