This book brings together contributions from a range of social welfare settings, including child welfare, unemployment, mental health and substance abuse treatment, to examine how interprofessional collaboration and service user participation are present, accomplished or challenged in multi-agency meetings.
It provides empirically grounded analyses of specific aspects of multi-agency work and offers a new conceptual framework for understanding and analysing meetings in various social welfare settings. This book demonstrates how the realisation of collaborative and integrated welfare policy is contingent on the interactional practices of professionals and service users and provides examples of best practice.
