In addition to describing the major problems facing the field, the book highlights service innovations that have been developed in recent years. The resulting picture is encouraging, especially if certain major program reforms are implemented and agencies are able to concentrate resources in a focused manner." "The volume emphasizes families and children whose primary recourse to services has been through publicly funded child welfare agencies, The book considers historical areas of service - foster care and adoptions, in-home family-centered services, child-protective services, and residential services - where social work has an important role, Authors address the many fields of practice in which child and family services are provided or that involve substantial numbers of social work programs, such as services to adolescent parents, child mental health, education, and juvenile justice agencies."--BOOK JACKET. 650 0 $a Child welfare $z United States. 650 7 $a Child welfare. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00854709 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 700 1 $a Pecora, Peter J. 700 1 $a Whittaker, James K. 700 1 $a Maluccio, Anthony N. 700 1 $a Barth, Richard P. 700 1 $a DePanfilis, Diane. 700 1 $a Plotnick, Robert D. 776 08 $i Online version: $t Child welfare challenge. $b 3rd ed. rev. and expanded. $d New Brunswick : Transaction Publishers, ©2009 $w (OCoLC)761198418 830 0 $a Modern applications of social work. 941 $a 1 952 $l CEAX572 $d 20200508015228.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=9785CE2890F111EA86A69E4897128E48 994 $a 92 $b UINInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
