educaTion & HealTH supporting indigenous children’s development Community-University Partnerships Jessica ball and alan r. pence This book challenges and offers an alternative to the imposition of best practices on communities by outside specialists. It tells of an unexpected partnership initiated by an Aboriginal tribal council with the University of Victoria’s School of Child and Youth Care. The partnership produced a new approach to professional education, in which community leaders are co-constructors of the curriculum. Word of this “generative curriculum” has spread, and now more than sixty communities have participated in the First Nations Partnerships Program. The authors show how this innovative program has strengthened community capacity to design, deliver, and evaluate culturally appropriate programs to support young children’s development. Jessica ball and alan r. pence are professors in the School of Child and Youth Care at the University of Victoria. 2006, 978-0-7748-1231-3 pb $34.95 152 pages, 6 x 9" 4 b&w illustrations, 9 tables, 1 map Aboriginal Education Pre-School Education educaTion & HealTH indigenous storywork Educating the Heart, Mind, Body, and Spirit Jo-ann archibald Jo-ann Archibald worked closely with Coast Salish Elders and storytellers, who shared both traditional and personal life-experience stories, in order to develop ways of bringing storytelling into educational contexts. Indigenous Storywork is the result of this research and it demonstrates how stories have the power to educate and heal the heart, mind, body, and spirit. It builds on the seven principles of respect, responsibility, reciprocity, reverence, holism, interrelatedness, and synergy that form a framework for understanding the characteristics of stories, appreciating the process of storytelling, establishing a receptive learning context, and engaging in holistic meaning-making.

Protecting Aboriginal Children explores contemporary approaches to the protection of Aboriginal children through interviews with practising social workers employed at Aboriginal child welfare organizations and the child protection service in British Columbia. It places current practice in a sociohistorical context, describes emerging practice in decolonizing communities, and identifies the effects of political and media controversy on social workers. This is the first book to document emerging practice in Aboriginal communities and describe child protection practice simultaneously from the points of view of Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal social workers. cHrisTopHer walmsley teaches in the School of Social Work and Human Service at Thompson Rivers University. 2005, 978-0-7748-1171-2 pb $30.95 192 pages, 6 x 9" Aboriginal Politics & Policy Social Work Aboriginal Studies 2010 33
