Abstract
A social work model for building a family-institution alliance as distinguished from a therapeutic alliance is presented. The model is based on a conceptualization of the family's needs at four successive stages in the early period of its relationship with the institution, beginning with the family's decision to admit a family member and concluding with an assessment of the type of therapeutic alliance indicated for the family. A review of the pertinent literature is also presented.
