The perspectives that inform the views of how to address social problems that affect children may vary as much as historical approaches. Do views about family in different cultures affect delivery of services? Do societal views of newly integrating cultures affect who is deemed deserving? And how does a rural or urban location affect these considerations?
This week, your Discussion focuses on a case study featuring issues related to child welfare. You choose a perspective from which to view and discuss the case.
