School Psychology: Professional Issues And Practices

This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the practice and profession of school psychology through a social justice lens.

We join many others in affirming that the goals of social justice and school psychology are inextricably linked.

Therefore, social justice issues must be studied in tandem with all areas of school psychological service delivery--
