This book presents a synthesis and comparative analysis of the centre's findings since its establishment in 2007—a challenge that the authors have risen to with diligence and enthusiasm.

Congruence and co‐operation in social workers’ assessments of children in need
This paper examines the concepts of congruence and co‐operation in social work practice with children and families.

Using material from other published research, the paper proposes a model and suggests methods for analysing congruence and co‐operation in the practice context. The key implication is that the depth of a social work…

The aim of this paper is to examine what we mean by comprehensive family assessments, and how they could be planned more effectively. We begin by considering some general issues concerning comprehensive family assessment. The body of the paper then uses a case study to consider key questions to be addressed in planning the asse…
