Family Therapy/Support

Literature on family therapy as it relates to offenders is sparse, two examples of which are:  

  • Working with the Families of Serious Juvenile Offenders: The Growing Up Fast Parole Programme (Partridge et al 2001)   

  • Functional Family Therapy (Sexton and Alexander, 2000)  

The Journal of Family Therapy may provide articles of use, and it is possible to download a free sample copy of this Journal. 

There is also a website dedicated to Functional Family Therapy.

The Centre holds a small number of books on family support, details of which can be found here.
