Children and Families in Communities: Theory, Research, Policy and Practice Hardcover - 2006 - 1st Edition
by Jacqueline Barnes; Ilan Barry Katz; Jill E. Korbin
First line
It has always been recognised that a child's circumstances are likely to have an influence on their developmental progress.
From the rear cover
In the past decade, the relationship between communities, children and families has inspired a wealth of research and policy initiatives because of a growing belief that the breakdown of communities and a reduction in their potential to support families is a significant factor in social problems, including child abuse and juvenile crime. In addition, it has been recognised that the community environment plays an important part in children's wellbeing.
Some of the latest policy initiatives to tackle social problems in a number of countries have therefore targeted vulnerable communities as well as high-risk families. For instance, there are currently over 20 area-based initiatives in the UK. There has also been increasing emphasis on encouraging children to take an active role in shaping their communities. This book discusses some of these important initiatives, as well as providing a topical examination of the latest research and the implications for policy and practice.
