Group Care Practice With Children And Young People Revisited

Drawing from Group care for children (1981) and Group care practice with children (1985) published in the United Kingdom, this collection examines the factors that have reshaped the field of group care for children, and the organizational influences on practice. Topics of the 12 chapters include assessment of social competencies, group care practitioners as family workers, developing a shared language, managing occupational stress, and the economics of group care practice.
