A Trauma Model for Assessing Siblings delivers a rigorous, trauma-informed framework for assessing and supporting sibling relationships in a range of care-giving settings. Drawing on decades of therapeutic and social work practice, this volume offers actionable guidance, tools, and insights, culminating in a complete assessment model for use in court, care planning, and therapeutic settings. Building upon the foundational understanding of trauma-informed assessments of sibling relationships in care and permanence planning within the authors’ other publication Foundations, Trauma, and the Child’s Voice in Sibling Relationships, it addresses when and how to separate siblings, when to keep them together, and how to support ongoing contact in a child-centered, developmentally informed way. An invaluable guide for therapists, counsellors, social workers, child welfare professionals and indeed anyone involved in making decisions regarding the placement of children.
