The Many Faces of Bereavement explores the development and
specifications of traditional models of grieving, with particular
emphasis on the relationship, age, and personal characteristics of
the mourner. In addition, the volume provides a framework of
symptomatology for nontraumatic, nonstigmatic deaths for the
purpose of comparative study. The book opens with a comprehensive
overview of the traditional models of grief, with special attention
given to the treatment of parental grief and the grief response of
the elderly following the death of a spouse. Other chapters cover
suggested typologies for traumatized and stigmatized processes of
grief that are specific to the mode of death, including murder,
drunk driving fatalities, community disasters, suicide, and
AIDS-related deaths. Finally, the authors draw on their own
personal experiences to present a summation of treatment strategies
and considerations for working with bereaved patients.

This comprehensive reference offers a robust framework for
introducing and sustaining trauma-responsive services and culture
in child welfare systems. Organized around concepts of safety,
permanency, and well-being, chapters describe innovations in child
protection, violence prevention, foster care, and adoption services
to reduce immediate effects of trauma on children and improve
long-term development and maturation. Foundations and interventions
for practice include collaborations with families and community
entities, cultural competency, trauma-responsive assessment and
treatment, promoting trauma-informed parenting, and, when
appropriate, working toward reunification of families. The book's
chapters on agency culture also address staffing, supervisory, and
training issues, planning and implementation, and developing a
competent, committed, and sturdy workforce. Among the topics
covered: Trauma-informed family engagement with resistant clients.
Introducing evidence-based trauma treatment in preventive services.
Working with resource parents for trauma-informed foster care. Use
of implementation science principles in program development for
sustainability. Trauma informed and secondary traumatic stress
informed organizational readiness assessments. Caseworker training
for trauma practice and building worker resiliency. Trauma
Responsive Child Welfare Systems ably assists psychology
professionals of varied disciplines, social workers, and mental
health professionals applying trauma theory and trauma-informed
family engagement to clinical practice and/or research seeking to
gain strategies for creating trauma-informed agency practice and
agency culture. It also makes a worthwhile text for a child welfare
training curriculum.

Research has consistently shown that there is a link between
caregiver substance use and child maltreatment, but less attention
has been given to child trauma exposure. The co-occurrence of
caregiver substance misuse and child trauma exposure is a
prevailing problem that has confounded social work prevention,
protection, and treatment efforts with both children and adults for
years. However, there has been minimal empirical and clinical
literature focusing on child trauma as an outcome of caregiver
substance use. This work is designed to be the catalyst for
sustained intellectual inquiry about how caregiver substance use,
child maltreatment, and violence exposure can be understood in
theory and practice. To this end, the research presented in this
book highlights the state of the science, the impact of the
phenomenon, and the policy and practice questions that must be
addressed. Implications for social work practice are highlighted in
order to attenuate these deleterious and pervasive problems in the
future. This book was originally published as a special issue of
the Journal of Social Work Practice in the Addictions.
