"...this book represents a challenge to clinicians to think about the limits to clinic-based work and provokes debate as to how resources may be used differently. It is made clear how political climates influence mental health. The work is optimistic in tackling these issues, rolling-up sleeves and getting on with targeted, proactive interventions. There is an energy and optimistic flavour to the work described which is inspiring."--Clinical Child Psychology and Psychiatry "Reaching Out in Family Therapy really lives up to the glowing remarks by the reviewers quoted on the back cover of the book. This volume focuses on home-based, school, and community interventions with families. It provides a hands-on approach to intervention which is grounded in a coherent framework of concepts and guiding principles and research evidence. The principles discussed are well-documented with scholarly references and richly illustrated with relevant, detailed case studies which are generously distributed throughout the book. Although these case studies will be most valuable to American readers, since they clearly pertain to families living in the USA, they do exemplify many concepts, principles, and intervention strategies that are more generic. Thus, they are also likely to be relevant to readers outside the USA....The authors of this book are to be congratulated for producing a truly useful, well thought-out volume. Although the authors are both professors of Psychology, Reaching Out in Family Therapy is highly recommended for students and practitioners of occupational therapy and physical therapy who work with or plan to work with families."--Physical and Occupational Therapy in Pediatrics "At last! We have a pragmatic, culturally sensitive and relevant text which is truly embedded in an ecological framework. Boyd-Franklin and Bry provide family therapists with clear, comprehensive guidelines to move from their offices into the contexts in which clients live....This book is essential reading for family therapists in agency, community, and private practices. I would strongly recommend that it supplement the basic family therapist texts used in graduate level training....The greatest strength of this book is its relevance to underserved populations. The case illustrations are truly representative of these clients and the complex difficulties with which they struggle, and the reader feels hopefulness and encouragement about doing, rather than just thinking, about effective helping....These commendable authors have furthered the pioneering work of Minuchin, Aponte, McGoldrick, and others and have swept us into the possibilities of the twenty-first century. They move us closer to the realities of our rapidly changing demographics and social organization." --Journal of Systemic Therapies "...an exciting primer for change through multi-systemic interventions. Using compelling research and moving case presentations, they delineate strategies for multifaceted family therapy in the home, school, and community. Their descriptions of factors and techniques are at once accessible and erudite, and the latter teach the therapist to be patient, flexible, persevering, resourceful, and supportive of clients' efforts. This is a superb book, useful to all family service providers, from neophyte to administrator. Students will find in it a primary text for understanding the interrelationships among theory, practice, and supporting research, as well as for learning clear, step-by-step technique. It will help seasoned clinicians refine their craft and reinvigorate their commitment to change. Supervisors will find tips on providing focused guidance to their charges. And program directors can look to this book for a grounded, workable, hope-infused system of change for vulnerable families." --Readings, An exciting primer for change through multi-systemic interventions....Students will find in it a primary text for understanding the interrelationships among theory, practice, and supporting research, as well as for learning clear, step-by-step technique.

And program directors can look to this book for a grounded, workable, hope-infused system of change for vulnerable families., "This is a powerful, thorough, and extremely relevant book. It will prove to be an essential graduate-level text for instructors who are serious about training students to work with underserved populations. Boyd-Franklin and Bry have also done a tremendous service for working professionals in providing practical, meaningful guidelines for establishing and deepening linkages to client families' communities. Exceptional coverage includes working with families in crisis and intervention and prevention in schools." --James L. Karustis, PhD, Psychologist, Haverford Medical Center, Havertown, Pennsylvania "Reaching Out in Family Therapyis specific and practical in its discussion of home-based and community interventions, capturing the relationship between clinical work and culture, race, and ethnicity. The book teaches theory and technique at the same time that it serves as a practical manual. This is a rich resource for today's clinician who would venture into the real world of clients, particularly ethnic and racial minorities." --Harry J. Aponte, MSW, author ofBread and Spirit "A sure winner. This book is a hands-on, ready reference that gives family workers explicit instruction on how to successfully engage with parents, children, and adolescents in the home, school, and community. The authors explain how families, overwhelmed by poverty, racism, violence, or other stressors, may become alienated from needed support. Therapists learn to bond with these 'difficult' families and help them navigate the maze of complex systems in which they are embedded. Enhancing the therapist's work and involvement, this book will be invaluable in the education and training of family therapists and social workers. Truly a gift." --Elaine Pinderhughes, MSW, Professor Emeritus, Boston College Graduate School of Social Work "This volume should be read by everyone working with families. It provides a practical, clear framework for multisystems intervention at the individual, family, community, and agency levels, with special attention to the needs of children and adolescents. Drawing carefully on the literature to back up their ideas, the authors bring many years of experience as clinicians and educators to this book. Without oversimplifying the difficult lives of the families they serve, they present thoughtful, resourceful, and manageable suggestions for practice. This is a hopeful, positive, and essential guide." --Monica McGoldrick, LCSW, PhD (h.c.), Family Institute of New Jersey, "...this book represents a challenge to clinicians to think about the limits to clinic-based work and provokes debate as to how resources may be used differently.
