Description
Professional practice is at the heart of youth work training but integrating the theory learned in class with the reality of placements can sometimes require extra support. This comprehensive textbook is designed to help students working with young people become competent and ethical practitioners, able to reflect on their learning and interventions in young people’s lives.
Divided into three parts, this core text:
- provides an understanding of and commitment to the principles of youth work
- explores how contexts shape youth work
- demonstrates the core practice skills that are required to make a meaningful impact on the lives of young people.
Engaging and practice-driven, this is an essential text for all students learning about working with young people, whether on youth work or allied courses. It includes case-studies, tasks, further reading and reflective questions to help readers make connections between their own knowledge and practice.
