Title: | Transforming Risks into Opportunities in Child Protection Cases: A Case Study with a Multisystemic, In-Home, Strength-Based Model | Authors: | Melo, Ana Teixeira de Alarcão, Madalena |
Keywords: | Child protection; Collaborative therapy; Family assessment; In-home therapy; Strength-based | Issue Date: | 2013 | Publisher: | Taylor & Francis | Project: | info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/FCT/SFRH/SFRH/BD/39912/2007/PT | Serial title, monograph or event: | Journal of Family Psychotherapy | Volume: | 24 | Issue: | 1 | Abstract: | Multisystemic, strength-based, in-home, collaborative family-centered programs have been advocated as an efficacious means to help multichallenged families living in poverty. The Integrated Family Assessment and Intervention Model (IFAIM) was developed in Portugal to assist the child protection system in conducting child protection assessments and in supporting multichallenged families with at-risk children and youth to overcome the risks and guarantee the child's safety. This article describes a single case study evaluating the process and outcome of the implementation of IFAIM with a multichallenged family referred by a child protection agency. The results support IFAIM's efficacy in promoting clinical significant changes in family and parental functioning through supporting the family with a focus on its strengths and key family resilience processes. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10316/36521 | ISSN: | 0897-5353 1540-4080 |
