Contributors underscore those features of communities that represent risk factors for children, adolescents, and their families, as well as those characteristics that underlie resilience and thus undergird individual and family functioning. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e As a society we have heavy investments both in research and in programs based on the idea that communities affect families and children, yet important questions have arisen about the validity of the link between communities, children, and families. This book answers the question of whether--and how--it takes a village to raise a child and what we can do to help communities achieve this essential task more effectively.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alan Booth\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0805832424\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780805832426\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Psychology Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/2001\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 280\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.26lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.31h x 6.32w x 0.90d","brand":"Alan Booth","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47036567126271,"sku":"9780805832426","price":190.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_52b0c7fe-b65c-49da-93d6-0bc28000f405.jpg?v=1752637965","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/does-it-take-a-village-alan-booth-9780805832426","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
