Educational Planning of Court-Involved Youth

Rezensionen / Stimmen

"Meeting the educational needs of foster youth is a chronic problem that continues to be alarmingly difficult to address. Foster youth enter each classroom with a plethora of prior experiences that can challenge the best educators, challenges that go far beyond the classroom. It is for that reason that a cross disciplinary approach to meeting their needs, including educational needs, is a must. The Framework presented here by Amy Bishop is truly a labor of love and is one that she has developed over the years as she worked to develop, enhance and improve a process by which the foster youth in her community could successfully achieve their educational goals. This is a must read for anyone who works with foster youth; educators, case workers, foster parents, mental health clinicians, and many others- you will all recognize your special place at the table for these deserving youth."
