Prezenta lucrare aduce în discuție importanța eforturilor colective pentru a promova bunăstarea copiilor. Realitățile actuale și dure ale societății în care trăim, de exemplu pandemia Covid-19 și conflictele armate din anumite țări, subliniază și demonstrează încă o dată faptul că drepturile copiilor sunt încălcate chiar și în aceste timpuri ale postmodernității. În acest context, lucrarea are mai mult un scop de conștientizare și subliniază modul cum noi ca indivizi, dar și ca profesioniști putem să acționăm pentru a promova și respecta drepturile fiecărui copil în parte. Subiectele precum bunăstare, vulnerabilitate, autodeterminare și reziliență sunt aduse în prim plan prezentând o imagine de ansamblu pentru a înțelege mai bine factorii care influențează și determină realitățile sociale care conduc și încurajează mai degrabă excluziunea socială, în detrimentul incluziunii sociale. În cele din urmă, lucrarea scoate în evidență importanța serviciilor sociale integrate pentru asigurarea bunăstării copiilor, conducând astfel la o incluziune socială în rândul copiilor vulnerabili.
