It is a groundbreaking and eye-opening confrontation of the inherent and systemic racism deeply entrenched within the child welfare system. Pryce started her social work career with an internship where she was committed to helping keep children safe. In the book, she walks alongside her close friends and even her family as they navigate the system, while sharing her own reckoning with the requirements of her job and her role in the systemic harm. Through poignant narratives and introspection, readers witness the harrowing effects of a well-intentioned workforce that has lost its way, demonstrating how separations are often not in a child's best interests. With a renewed commitment to strengthening families in her role as activist, Pryce invites the child welfare workforce to embark on a journey of self-reflection and radical growth. At once a framework for transforming child protective services and an intimate, stunning first-hand account of the system as it currently operates, Broken takes everyday scenarios as its focus rather than extreme child welfare cases, challenging readers to critically examine their own mindsets and biases in order to reimagine how we help families in need"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Child welfare $z United States. 650 0 $a African American families. 650 0 $a Family services $z United States. 650 0 $a Social work with African Americans. 650 0 $a Family social work $z United States. 650 6 $a Familles noires ameÌricaines. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0226608 650 6 $a Services aux familles $0 (CaQQLa)201-0407727 $z EÌtats-Unis. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0407727 650 6 $a Service social aux Noirs ameÌricains. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0094117 650 6 $a Service social familial $0 (CaQQLa)201-0407727 $z EÌtats-Unis. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0407727 655 7 $a POLITICAL SCIENCE / Public Policy / Social Services & Welfare. $2 bisacsh 776 08 $i Online version: $a Pryce, Jessica. $t Lost in the system $d New York, NY : Amistad, [2023] $z 9780063036215 $w (DLC) 2023039978 941 $a 6 952 $l GZPE631 $d 20240516010430.0 952 $l KOPC446 $d 20240410010408.0 952 $l DBPE173 $d 20240409011905.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20240402013256.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20240402012756.0 952 $l CDPF771 $d 20240402012105.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=9121596EF0B811EE9EC0998A3BECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b C@VInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
