Participatory Approaches in Child and Family Social Work

Creating Meaningful Relationships and Empowering Families

About this book

Child and family social work faces pressing challenges, from high care rates – particularly among marginalised communities – to limited family involvement in decision-making. How can social work evolve to better empower children and families?

Rooted in original empirical research, this edited volume argues for collaborative, relationship-based practice. It explores participatory approaches to working with both children and parents/caregivers, innovative advocacy strategies and emerging trends, including increasing use of digital platforms.

Essential reading for academics, policy makers and practitioners working in child welfare and social work, it provides evidence-based guidance for fostering inclusive, family-centred social care. Using interviews and observations, it amplifies the voices of those directly involved in the social care system while offering practical tools for creating more responsive, effective and ethical social work practices.
