Updated throughout, this new edition offers: An exploration of ethically sound accountability practices Potential obstacles and suggestions for overcoming them Guidance to help students set goals Applications of narrative ideas to restorative justice An expanded section on group work, specifically focusing on anger management and grief counseling Grounded in a deep respect for students, this book′s principles and practices will enable students to choose for themselves the new reputations by which they′ll be known.
