Support and Protection Across the Lifecourse: A Practical Approach for Social Workers

By Patrick Dolan, Caroline McGregor, Pat Dolan

Crossing the traditional divide between social work with children and families and adults, this text applies a lifecourse perspective, within an ecological frame. Based on the principle that practice drives theory, a practical approach for social work is put forward using five interconnected themes: - duality of support and protection - life transitions and life events - intergenerational relations - civic partnership and engagement - health and wellbeing Designed for students and practitioners, this text takes an enquiry-based approach using Critical ART (analysis, reflection and thinking). The book features: - case studies - research examples - tips for Critical ART in practice - further reading and resources
