This fully revised and expanded edition considers the meaning of
'vulnerability' - a key concept in early intervention - and the
relationship between vulnerability and the individual, communities
and society. It includes new chapters on children's voices, young
people and vulnerability, and working with vulnerable parents.
Introducing students to a broad debate around what constitutes
vulnerability and related concepts such as risk and resilience, it
examines how vulnerability has been conceptualised by policy makers
with a clear focus on early intervention for preventing social
problems later in life. It adopts a case study approach, using
chapters examining the concept of vulnerability from sociological,
psychological and social policy perspectives before looking at
examples around leaving care, victims of violence, sexual abuse,
and the Internet. Supporting students in engaging with and
evaluating the conceptualisation and application of vulnerability
in professional practice, this book is suitable for anyone either
preparing for or currently working within the children's workforce,
from social work and health care to education and youth work.
