Dr. Monica Barry, Glasgow School of Social Work.
Monica Barry recently undertook an international review of
effective approaches to risk assessment in social work in the light
of the recommendations from the Changing Lives report. This seminar
is based on that review and whilst it briefly explores
commonalities and differences across various areas of practice in
social work, it focuses predominantly on criminal justice and the
implications for policy and practice of the drive towards
multi-agency partnerships and a common approach to risk assessment
and management of offenders in Scotland.
