Sommario/riassunto

In Fixing Families, Jennifer Reich takes us inside Child Protective Services for an in-depth look at the entire organization. Following families from the beginning of a case to its discharge, Reich shows how



parents negotiate with the state for custody of their children, and how being held accountable to the state affects a family.
