Working with aggressive and violent parents in child protection social work

Abstract

This article examines the findings from research into the effects of parent service user aggression and violence against child protection social workers. First, the types of violence that are most prevalent, and the effects on workers are discussed. Next, the problematic areas to be addressed in order to provide the most effective forms of support and supervision are set out. The links between risks to workers and risks to abused children within violent families are also examined.
