Families in Motion

Dynamics of the family is as complex set of interrelated cogs; like the dials and wheels within a sophisticated timepiece. Families in Motion is a comprehensive and contextual view into how all of the dials and wheels of that complex set work together. Ultimately, it explores the complexities of the family regarding roles, functions, development, and issues that occur. Grounded in theory, author Clara Gerhardt examines the ever-changing movement, communication and conditions on both the family as a system and on each individual member with the system. This text is also aligned with the requirements of the Certified Family Life Educator (CFLE) set of standards. Covering approaches from the theoretical to the therapeutic, Families in Motion will help students practice multicultural competence while understanding families and the members within with greater confidence--
