Social Action with Children & Families

By Crescy Cannan and Chris Warren

Book Overview

Meeting the needs of children at the same time as promoting family life is more than a question of resources, it needs a culture change in social services and a modernization of the social action and community development traditions in social work. Social Action with Children and Families argues that ways must be found to work together to promote environments in which children can flourish, and to develop forms of public life which are friendly to children and their parents. Its central aim is to help those working in this field to find a new, more positive sense of direction and purpose.
