Paperback. Condizione: New. This book makes a critical case for advocacy in the lives of people with learning difficulties. This can only be applauded.' - Disability and Society'I found this book to be a thoughtful, interesting and challenging read and I would recommend it to anyone working in the field of advocacy or involved in any capacity with people with learning disabilities. It raises many questions about advocacy in all its different forms and asks those of us involved in this field to reflect on our own practice and that of our funding bodies. It also challenges and invites reflection on prevailing attitudes towards learning disability more generally and the way in which services are provided. Finally it leaves the reader in no doubt of the benefit and necessity of advocacy services, to ensure that people with learning disabilities are able to have their voices heard and their needs understood and met.'-The British Journal of Developmental Disabilities'This is designed for advocacy practitioners and staff working in agencies who come into contact with advocacy services. It is aimed at more experienced practitioners, and service planners, who are serious about developing effective advocacy services within a social inclusion framework.'- Care and Health magazine'This book continues to raise questions about advocacy throughout.

The kind of professional and practical issues and problems confronting those running and using advocacy services are discussed, and the role of advocacy is examined.
