Book excerpt: School-Based Family Counseling with Refugees and Immigrants focuses on the practical application of School-Based Family Counseling (SBFC) with refugee and immigrant populations. Emphasizing collaboration, mutual assistance, dialogue, and joint problem-solving, SBFC takes a systems approach that stresses the integration of school, family, and community interventions; the three most important systems that affect the lives of children. Through case studies, the book explains how to design and implement integrated SBFC interventions for refugee and immigrant populations in an explicit manner. The book’s practical, how-to approach is suitable for novice and experienced practitioners alike.
