In tribute to three Deans of the Graduate School
of Social Service, Fordham Uruversity:
James R. Dumpson, Dean of the School 1967-1974
Mary Ann Quaranta, Dean 1975-2000
Peter Vaughn, Dean 2000-present
Each, in distinctive ways, has contributed to the development
of social work practice with children and therefore provided
behind-the-scenes support and inspiration for this book.
As recipient of the James R. Dumpson Chair in Child Welfare
Studies, I am committed to continue Dean Dumpson's
important work on behalf of poor and disadvantaged children.
