Angebote / Angebote:
This volume describes a myriad of policy, research and practice issues related to families of children with serious emotional disorders. It centres on families' direct and indirect roles in children's mental health services - for example, families can determine if and when the child enters treatment, and they can provide the context within which all therapeutic gains are played out.
The contributors discuss: family-centred service delivery characteristics and strategies, society's role in strengthening the family and preventing emotional disorders in children and young people, supports for and barriers to parent-professional partnerships, the complexities of assessing family functioning, and culturally sensitive service delivery. Throughout the book, consideration is given to the complexity and diversity of families, and the resultant impact upon service delivery.
