Book description
Helping Abused Children and Their Families is an invaluable reference for child protection workers and for students which presents a practical, research-based overview of child protection work. Chris Trotter explains what works and what doesn't work in child protection, one of the most challenging and at times frustrating fields of practice in the human services. Drawing on a major study and current international research, he shows that rates of re-abuse and client and worker satisfaction can be improved with an evidence-based approach to intervention.
