Abstract

Purpose This paper aims to make the case for early action approaches with migrant families, introducing a set of principles for practice, mapped against the Professional Capabilities Framework for social work and the Social Work England professional standards. Design/methodology/approach The paper first explores the context of social work with migrant families, outlining the challenges and gaps in our conceptual understanding of this work. The paper then introduces a conceptual model of work with migrant families which draws on the literature from social work and allied professions, and informed by social work values and ethics. Findings Current social work practice with migrant children has been criticised as defensive, procedural and lacking a coherent conceptual basis, particularly for those who are subject to the no recourse to public funds (NRPF) rule. This field of social work practice would benefit from an evidence-informed model of practice, anchored in human rights approaches and focused on early action. Eight principles, drawn from existing good practice in other social work and social care contexts, are outlined as the basis for a new model of practice in social work with migrant families. Originality/value The NRPF rule is a provision in the immigration rules that prevents people who are subject to immigration control from claiming most social security benefits in the UK. In recent years, there has been an increased interest in research about the NRPF rule and its negative impact on children. However, there is currently no evaluated model of social work practice for children and families with NRPF.

“前景”原则:早期行动和无法求助于公共资金的移民儿童
目的本文旨在为移民家庭的早期行动方法提供依据,介绍了一套实践原则,这些原则与社会工作的专业能力框架和英国社会工作专业标准相一致。设计/方法论/方法本文首先探讨了移民家庭社会工作的背景,概述了我们在概念上理解这项工作的挑战和差距。然后,本文介绍了一个移民家庭工作的概念模型,该模型借鉴了社会工作和相关职业的文献,并以社会工作价值观和伦理为依据。发现当前针对移民儿童的社会工作实践被批评为防御性、程序性和缺乏连贯的概念基础,尤其是对于那些不受公共资金(NRPF)规则约束的人。这一社会工作实践领域将受益于以人权方法为基础、注重早期行动的循证实践模式。根据其他社会工作和社会护理环境中现有的良好做法,概述了八项原则,作为移民家庭社会工作新实践模式的基础。独创性/价值NRPF规则是移民规则中的一项条款,禁止受移民控制的人在英国申请大多数社会保障福利。近年来,人们对NRPF规则及其对儿童的负面影响的研究越来越感兴趣。然而,目前还没有针对患有NRPF的儿童和家庭的社会工作实践的评估模型。
