Summary:Annotation Child protection and family support is a major social issue; there is a continuing debate about how policies and practices regarding child protection integrate with those concerning family support and child welfare more generally. While it is agreed that there needs to be a "rebalancing" between child protection and family support, there is a real fear among social services staff when things go wrong, subjecting them to public inquiry and media contempt. "Child Protection and Family Support" brings together a range of distinguished researchers and commentators to analyze the nature of the issue and possible ways forward. It draws on recent research and case studies from the UK and policy makers, managers and practitioners in social work and child welfare agencies.
