Description

"The book is an edited collection from diverse Indigenous and non-Indigenous authors, researchers and practitioners in Canada, including the work of some renowned child welfare scholars. It is devoted to improving the lives of children and families that come to the attention of child welfare authorities by demonstrating and advocating socially just child welfare practice. Chapter authors provide special consideration to the historical and political context of child welfare in Canada. The book features both theoretical ideas and concrete practices that support practitioners, educators and students who are looking for anti racist, anti oppressive and anti colonial perspectives on practice."--
