Social welfare & social services; Social work; Advocacy; Family law: children

The burdens carried by those working in child welfare are huge. Answering the phone 24/7/365 to help a child, and then having to quickly determine if the child is safe to stay or needs to leave their home-that is a level of responsibility few wish to take on. As a military veteran who transitioned from serving her country to serving her community, Sunny has tried to make this book an easy read that occasionally makes one laugh even while tackling serious issues.

This important and informative book is a must-read for child welfare professionals, students entering the field of human services, judges who threaten contempt on issues surrounding quick decisions made on the fly when taking someone's kid to safety and possibly running for your life, parents who believe those who remove their children do not carry a heavy burden, and people who have an interest in social issues.
