First published in 1999, this volume examines the 'meanings'
specific child protection cases involving the familial sexual abuse
of adolescent girls hold for social workers. This is achieved
through a qualitative analysis of a series of interviews with
social workers regarding current or recent cases. The analysis
reveals various influences on social workers' practice: the
organisation and administrative structure of child protection,
governmental requirements to interagency coordination, the abused
girl, her family, and the skills and limitations of the social
worker. The findings point to a series of tensions between social
workers' perceptions of appropriate intervention practice on the
one hand and organisational needs, the demands of the criminal
justice system and client choice on the other. This leads to
recommendations for improved in-service training, including joint
training for social workers and police officers, and a review of
the transitional procedures between child protection and adult
services.
