This course uses a family systems approach to introduce the research, applied, and ethical aspects of working with children and families from diverse backgrounds. Students will apply several theoretical frameworks to explore the nested and multi-layered interactions between the child, family, community and society and policies and services available to them. Special attention will be devoted to applied skills in working with children and families.
