Skills for Families Skills for Life
Helping Parents, Caregivers, and Teens Meet the Challenges of Everyday Living
By Linda Shadoin, M.S.W., Joni Cook-Griffin and Jane L. Peterson, M.H.D.
As a practitioner, you have lots of resources available to assist you as you're helping families with parenting and child management problems. Aiding families with troubles such as these, however, can be even more challenging when they struggle with basic living skills and everyday tasks. What do you do, for example, when a family you're working with loses its housing, doesn't know how to deal with a child's chronic medical problem, or runs out of money for food or rent?
Skills for Families, Skills for Life
is a book that you can use to teach life skills to parents, caregivers, and even older teens to help families solve daily living problems. More than 100 skills, in step-by-step detail, are outlined in 11 caregiving areas that include nutrition, money management, housing, medical needs, home safety, education, and child supervision. The skills range in difficulty from the basic - preparing a meal and doing laundry - to the complex - managing family finances and seeking assistance from community resources.
"Whether you work in a school, agency, clinic, shelter, or home setting, you can use this guide to incorporate the teaching of skills into your assessment and treatment planning for families." - Family Therapy
Skills for Families, Skills for Life
can help you identify a family's goals, build on its strengths, as well as meet the needs the family sees as most important.
