"In Connecting Policy to Practice in the Human Services Brian Wharf and Brad McKenzie argue that as currently developed, policy seldom responds to the needs of service users.".
"This book attempts to come to grips with this unsatisfactory state of affairs. Organized in two parts, the six chapters in Part One describe the policy making process including a detailed discussion of policy analysis. Particular attention is given to the implementation stage of the policy process where practitioners assume primary responsibility.
Part Two outlines new and more inclusive approaches to policy making with chapters on shared decision making by Stephen Owen, policy communities by Deborah Rutman, and a chapter on community governance."--BOOK JACKET.
