Career Summary
Biography
Prior to working in university, Chris' professional roles included counselling (for young people and their families), child protection and out-of-home care casework, youth sector development, NSW government policy rollout (specifically, Keep them Safe child protection reforms) and program evaluation.
Chris' PhD research investigated the effects of documents the NSW Children's Court. The research used document analysis and interviews to respond to the question “what do child protection court documents do to the people closely involved with them?" It found that documents often provoke anger and frustration from the person being written about and also that professionals try to lessen the damaging effects where possible. Court documents are seen to have the elements of narratives and, like all other writing, authors have to make decisions about what to say and how. The research recommends that social work and welfare students have a deeper education in documents before starting to practice.
