This hands-on guide provides accessible, insightful advice for practitioners who find themselves working with asylum seekers and refugees.

Part II prepares professionals for meeting a wide range of needs, including housing, poverty, health and mental health, and training and employment.

It also cover issues and opportunities when working with child and young refugees.

This pragmatic book accompanies social workers, medical staff, educators, charity workers and housing professionals in their daily work, and illustrates the perspective of refugees themselves.

A passionate and compassionate response to the needs of displaced people, it is an excellent starting point for all those working to create a safe and welcoming environment where refugees and asylum seekers are supported.
