This book is a professional text focusing on the role and practice of Family Group Conferencing in human services. It provides a detailed understanding of Family Group Conferences to a wide audience of readers, including agencies, caseworkers, professionals and, importantly, facilitators of Family Group Conferences. The author will argue that when working with children, young people and their families, a practice environment must be created that shifts from assessment and investigation to one that encourages a culture of genuine engagement and helping. The book rests on the premises that families are capable of finding solutions that incorporate safety, and that the cornerstone of wellbeing is having a sense of family and belonging. The flexible framework of FGC and its limitless adaptability tor cultural and unique definitions of family will be emphasised. The origin, theoretical underpinnings and current research in Family Group Conferencing is highlighted, as is the importance of model fidelity. Scenarios and case studies are used to identify strengths, gaps and needs with a view to improving policy, practice, training, supervision and services where children, your people and families are at the centre.
