“This book seeks to fill an important gap in the dissemination of research work in the area of protection of children and young people in various sectors of social intervention in Portugal. In this sense, the texts presented intend to identify and problematize both the state of the art and present technical solutions at the family, social and organizational levels.

As a whole, the texts included in this book may be of interest to undergraduate and postgraduate students, professionals invested in a lifelong learning path, as well as all those who seek to learn about new approaches in the area of assessment and intervention in the domain of protection of children and young people at risk, and respective development contexts (family, institutions and community).

This work therefore intends to promote quality standards and values of good practice in institutional and community intervention in the area of populations at risk, and provide a valid contribution with application in terms of policies and practices within the scope of social services in general, and the child and youth protection system in particular.”
