The way we want to make it fit: How child protection practitioners ‘resist’ systemic reform

Abstract

Biography

Amy is a social worker who has spent the last decade specialising in work with children and young people in families. Amy has worked in both statutory child protection roles and as a trauma therapist. Amy is skilled in a range of assessments including assessing parenting capacity, reflective functioning, and attachment. Amy's research focuses on reforming child protection systems. Based on her research, she advocates for a trauma-informed response to systemic reform. Trauma-informed responses nurture child protection practitioners to become resilient, adaptive, and offer quality services to children and families.
