In Narrating Practice with Children and Adolescents, social workers, sociologists, researchers, and helping professionals share engaging and evocative stories of practice meant to center the young client’s story. The book considers the narratives we tell about children and adolescents and proposes counternarratives that challenge dominant ideas.
This book crosses cultures and contexts to capture a range of perspectives on the realities of armed conflict and its aftermath for children. Including war-affected children in their analyses, contributors highlight innovative methodologies that directly involve children in the research process.

Promoting Equity for Children, Families, and Communities Laura R. Bronstein and Susan E. Mason Foreword by Jane Quinn
How "family" is construed on a material and discursive level has gained increasing interest among educational and social work professionals. Contributors to this volume address that question in relation to the diverse daily practices of "doing family" by its heterogeneous members. The book builds a transdisciplinary bridge between research on family life on the one hand and research on the formatting of family in welfare state contexts on the other.
The evidence-based strategies in this volume close the achievement gap among students from all sociological backgrounds. Designed according to local needs assessments, they provide the services, programs, initiatives, and relationships that are crucial for children’s success in school and life.
