"Every child's way of being can open doors to wisdom, compassion,
and human connection. We need only to listen." This is among the
conclusions that the authors, one of whom is an experienced foster
parent and the other a professor of developmental psychology, draw
as a result of working with a diverse range of children and
families. Inspired by their relationships with families in crisis,
the authors began to rethink the traditional foster care models and
developed an innovative practice that afforded birth parents the
opportunity to reside, under supervision, with their children
during evaluation and treatment. Drawing on over 20 years of work
in foster care, along with current attachment research and theory,
this book conveys the foster care experience with recommendations
for improved models of care and intervention strategies. Engaging
case studies depict the challenging nature of determining the best
outcome for a child and of supporting the adult's journey as a
parent. Written in a narrative style and supported by in-depth
research, this book will aid social workers and foster care
professionals to better understand families in crisis and to
further develop their practice.
