CYC in the Field

Child and Youth Care in the Field: A Practicum Guidebook

Canadian Scholars Press, July 2020

Reviews

“Child and Youth Care in the Field is a wonderful guidebook that supports students, educators, and supervisors through the CYC practicum journey. Carys Cragg skillfully blends CYC theory and practice in ways that challenge both educators and students to experience their practicum journeys in diverse ways. Informed by youth voice, social justice, Truth and Reconciliation, and essential reflective practices, this book pushes the traditional CYC canon finally into the realities of contemporary Child and Youth Care.”

— Heather Snell, Lecturer, Child and Youth Care, Ryerson University and University of Strathclyde, and Founding Member, Child and Youth Care Educational Accreditation Board of Canada

“This thought-provoking book offers a pathway for a new generation of CYC practitioners to practice from an expansive range of frameworks and worldviews that reveal some of the historic injustices that have resulted in systemic discrimination and exclusion evident in contemporary practice settings. It calls students to reflect on the ‘helping’ profession and invokes the spirit of social justice going beyond rhetoric and virtue signalling.”

— Jin-Sun Yoon, Teaching Professor, School of Child and Youth Care, University of Victoria, and Chair, Child and Youth Care Education Consortium of British Columbia

“This comprehensive and wonderfully practical guide to CYC practicum is a must read for both students entering the field and supervisors at the university and on-site. Carys Cragg has really captured and distilled key elements of CYC theory and practice as they pertain to the practicum experience. Accessible and well written, it is a key resource in the development of the field.”

— Hans Skott-Myhre, Adjunct Professor, Child and Youth Studies, Brock University, and Professor, Department of Social Work and Human Services, Kennesaw State University
