Written in consultation with a range of experts, clinicians and practitioners as well as adoptive children, families and birth relatives, this book gives helpful guidance on making evidence-based assessments and planning successful adoption support. Key features include:

  • a discussion of the main themes of adoption and pointers for practice in relation to the Assessment Framework
  • a guide to the use of evidence-based approaches to assessment, including the tools commissioned by the Department of Health and the Department for Education
  • a model for analysis and planning, and planning support and interventions
  • an investigation of the source, range and value of support services and interventions that can promote the wellbeing of adopted children, their adoptive families and birth relatives.

Packed with practical advice, case examples and models of good practice, this book is invaluable for social workers and managers involved with the adoption process and the well-being of children and families. It is also essential reading for social work students learning about working with children and families.
