Editorial Reviews:

This classic volume provides a conceptual and practical approach to the treatment of emotionally disturbed children in residential centers during the 23 hours each day not given over to individual therapy. Based on the philosophy that child care is more than simple regulation of daily events, the coupling of practical suggestions for handling major routines of a child's day and theoretical psychology result in a sourcebook that explains how to make child management as effective a tool as individual therapy.

5 out of 5 stars MSSA, LISW

This is a classic text for child and youth care proffessionals. The book provides both the new and established milieu staff with the skills needed to provide a healthy and productive "other 23 hours outside the therapy meeting." This book should be required reading for all people who work with children. The central theme is to provide a milieu (an enviorment rich in theraputic exchanges) that meet the developmental needs of troubled children. Every chapter proivdes practical activities and methods. This is the type of book you need to read every year to refresh your mission. Every time you read this book, you will learn a new "gem." It is the best book ever written about the management of troubled child.
