Until recently, there has not been a great deal of overlap in the
child welfare and trauma literatures. This text bridges that divide
by integrating perspectives from both fields to help practitioners
understand and address the special needs of maltreated children and
adolescents and their families. Current knowledge on attachment,
trauma, and risk and resilience is clearly explained, including the
impact of abuse on the brain. Readers learn how to conduct
assessments and implement a range of effective helping strategies
with youth in foster care and other settings. Featuring extensive
case illustrations, the book gives particular attention to
diversity issues and the importance of supporting child and family
strengths.
