Learning difficulties or disabilities""Social workers and other social care professionals regularly face the challenges of working with people with alcohol and other drug problems. Yet many receive little, if any, training for working with these issues. As substance use and its social impact on communities and families rises up the political agenda, this book offers a timely support for social workers and other social care staff working in this area. Supporting people with alcohol and drug problems addresses the current gap in social work and social care education. It provides a combination of research evidence, policy frameworks, and practical hints and tips for good social work practice. Based around practice examples supplied by social workers from both adults' and children's social care, it combines knowledge with action. It also provides an important introduction to the evidence base on assessment, intervention and partnership working with specialist substance use colleagues. This book is for all those working in children's and adults' social work and social care settings who are working with people who use, or have problems with, alcohol and other drugs. Social Work in Practice SeriesAlcoholism counselingDrug abuse counselingAlcoholism counseling.Drug abuse counseling.362.29186Galvani Sarah1555037MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910789054303321Supporting people with alcohol and drug problems3816669UNINA
