Description

This collection of papers updates the thinking and practices described in "Enabling and Empowering Families" since it went to press in 1987, building and elaborating upon the model described in the earlier book. The book addresses the theory, methods, strategies, and practices involved in adopting an empowerment and family-centered resource approach to supporting families and strengthening individual and family functioning. The second volume provides evidence of the outcomes which this model fosters. After reiterating and elaborating the conceptions stated earlier en "Enabling and Empowering Families", the authors address the elements of the model and their applications to practice.
