"This book presents a revolutionary approach to child protection work. It focuses on the question, "How can child protection professionals actually build partnerships with parents where there is suspected or substantiated child abuse or neglect?""--BOOK JACKET.

"The authors bring the solution orientation to child protection work, expanding the investigation of risk to encompass signs of safety that can be built upon to stabilize and strengthen the child's and family's situation. The philosophy behind this approach is clearly articulated through twelve practice principles that serve as guiding beacons for child protection workers as they traverse the rough waters of abuse and neglect investigation."--BOOK JACKET.
