Child abuse and neglect (CAN) continues to be a serious public health problem in the United States, affecting approximately 19% of victims and costing approximately $124 billion to society. When a child is removed from their parent’s custody due to parental abuse or neglect, the child is sometimes placed in temporary custody through dependency court. Difficult and emotionally laden legal decisions occur within dependency court, including determining whether (and where) a child should be temporarily placed or whether a child should be returned to the parent’s custody. Over 6 million children experienced some type of child maltreatment in 2013, with 144,000 receiving foster care services (Child Maltreatment, 2013). Legal decision-makers, including judges, case workers, and social workers have the important task of determining what placement is in the best interest of the child. What factors shape decisions in child custodial cases? Chapter One of this book reviews empirical evidence suggesting that the race of the child and parent plays a role in shaping child custodial decisions. Chapter Two presents a feminist, social constructionist theoretical conceptualization, entitled relational trust theory, that describes the effects of gendered power dynamics on the perception of the other partner as trustworthy in adult-survivor couple interactions; and expounds on the findings of a longitudinal grounded theory study that identified clinical processes of Socio-Emotional Relationship Therapy (SERT) that helped adult-survivor couples transform their gendered power disparities and engage in relationally safe ways that supported a trusting emotional culture. Chapter Three provides a description of Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT), a rationale for its use with parents and children who have experienced CAN, and an overview of PCIT’s evidence base for both intervening with and preventing future CAN.

"Now a retired fisherman and trapper, Merasty was one of an estimated 150,000 First Nations, Inuit, and Metis children who were taken from their families and sent to government-funded, church-run schools, where they were subjected to a policy of 'aggressive assimiliation.' As Merasty recounts, these schools did more than attempt to mold children in the ways of white society. They were taught to be ashamed of their native heritage and, as he experienced, often suffered physical and sexual abuse. Even as he looks back on this painful part of his childhood, Merasty's generous and authentic voice shines through."--From publisher.

"Les grands bouleversements s’opèrent dans la légèreté. Comment oserions-nous sinon les affronter ?Seule l’écriture parvient à dire le chaos d’une enfance. Stéphane Lambert a dix ans lorsqu’un ami de la famille abuse de lui. Tout vole alors en éclats. Au hasard des jours, il se retrouve, trente ans plus tard, dans l’immeuble de son ancien abuseur. De là il remonte le fil de ce qu’on a voulu taire, en mesurant avec quelle force le passé imprégnait sa vie présente.Mais la dévastation peut aussi engendrer la beauté. Dans la solitude d’une île grecque, l’auteur apprend à surmonter ses peurs. Et quand survient la mort du père, c’est un homme serein qui y fait face. Car le temps du livre est celui de l’apaisement.L’apocalypse est heureuse."--
