PSY4005 Working with Children in the Shadow of the Law
SCHOOL OF PSYCHOLOGY AND SOCIAL SCIENCE
Credit Points: 15
 
Description:

Family breakdown and social disharmony can involve children as participants (for example, when their parents separate), as witnesses (for example, of family violence or criminal behaviour) or as victims (of abuse or neglect). Working with them, either as an assessor or counsellor, requires specific skills. This unit introduces students to these skills and considers issues of importance in working with children who may be at risk.
