About the Book

Like the first edition, this newly revised and updated edition of "The Child Welfare Challenge" addresses a broad array of issues in supporting children and strengthening families. The authors believe that the task of child welfare is best viewed as a product of the three major foci of the textbook: policy, practice, and research. Accordingly, each chapter includes examples of the interrelationships of these three elements. The thorough updating in this second edition includes key information about recent federal legislation such as TANF and AFSA as well as policy-related outcomes research in child welfare.
