Riassunto

Resilience is a key topic in child development, particularly for fostered and adopted children. In this bestselling book, Robbie Gilligan - the expert first responsible for applying these concepts to practice - sets out why resilience is important, and how to build feelings of confidence and self-esteem in children. The book is centred on two messages of hope: that the lives of children in care can be made better; and that what social workers and carers can do even the little things can make a difference to children s lives and their life chances. The guide contains inspirational ideas and suggestions for promoting resilience in day-to-day work, with a wealth of case studies and ideas for practice.
