Richard, You may want to take a look at the Functional Family Therapy (FFT) model, if you are not already familiar with it. FFT was specifically developed for dealing with resistant families--those that are high-risk and have low motivation for change. Although initially developed (Dr. Jim Alexander, University of Utah) for work with delinquent youth, FFT has been successfully generalized and extended to a number of populations. I used FFT extensively (and successfully) when I worked in the child protection field several years ago. Best of all, FFT is one of the few family therapy models that's empirically based and validated--the Center for the Prevention of Violence endorsed it a couple of years ago. Good luck, Rob Robert M.
