A thousand mile journey across South Africa..... by bike! The follow-up to the successful Boomerang Road
All cultures have children and young people whose emotional wellbeing requires attention and whose behaviours give them, their peers and those who care for them challenges in how to meet their needs. Developing good practice across work with children and young people with social, emotional and behavioural difficulties relies on both professional practice and theory. The chapters in this book are taken from those presented at the International Conference organised by SEBDA in 2010 around the theme ‘Transforming Troubled Lives’, with each contributor addressing issues of policy, practice or provision whilst exploring an essential question: is what we are doing effective? This critical reflective question is essential if interventions – be they in provision, policy or practice – are to lead to positive outcomes for the children and young people concerned. This book was originally published as a special issue of Emotional and Behavioural Difficulties.
Prison, poverty, oppression -- this is the common experience of Christians in the U.S.S.R. and other Iron Curtain countries. Though most Westerners rarely hear first-hand accounts of their suffering, these Christian brethren have great physical and spiritual needs. Here are stories from the life of John Visser, a brave and dedicated pastor from Holland who is ministering to those needs. Soviet threats, confiscations, and interrogations -- Dr. Visser has been through them all as he has taken the Word of God to the victims of communism. None of these dangers have turned him from God's call to go Behind the Iron Curtain. - Back cover.
