About

A bird's eye view of a group of people undertaking major change, this is the story of one child psychiatric unit and a profound questioning of the humanity of current practice in child welfare. It offers the experience of building, through collaborative effort, a child and family-centered care facility as an alternative to the existing model.

"This book should be required reading for administrators and staff in all restrictive facilities-therapeutic schools, inpatient units, residential facilities, and juvenile detention centers-and for the parents who must entrust their children to these facilities."
