Recent government initiatives and developments in professional practice have been designed to help families in difficulty effectively, in order to prevent child harm. This book examines whether these changes have worked, by examining a large scale study conducted by the NSPCC and drawing out the main messages for practice and future policy. The research findings are set out in terms of children's and families' needs and expectations, agency interventions and outcomes, community context, measures and perceived changes over time. ? Highly topical - national priority designated by government ? Professionals are required to learn quickly about this and little information is presently available to them ? Clear presentation - lots of boxes and diagrams to be incorporated

I found the book to be a quick, enjoyable read ... .A valuable resource for professional practitioners, researchers and policymakers internationally or in the UK." (Journal of Children's Services, August 2007) "There is much to be gained from the trend of the findings and also from other sources of information."
