This article written by three social workers in child psychiatry aims to draw attention to the practice of this profession in an infanto-juvenile Medico--Psychological Centre (CMP). After a brief historical recap, its specific positioning is developed. In connection with the inter-professional team, with patients and their families, in liaison with the other structures of the sector, it valorizes its tools and presents its different activities on the territory. Family interviews, therapeutic workshops, partnership work groups and combined interventions are evoked to illustrate the discussion.
