Constructing Genograms with Children in Care: Implications for Casework Practice.
Altshuler, Sandra J.
Child Welfare, v78 n6 p777-90 Nov-Dec 1999
Highlights use by caseworkers of genogram construction with children in care. Notes that genogram construction can be an initial engagement tool and a way to gather information about children's view of care and their family. Suggests that genograms can enhance rapport between caseworkers and children of different ethnicities, support permanency planning efforts, and enable children's voices to be heard. (Author/KB)
