ABSTRACT Collaboration across child protection and domestic and family violence sectors has been identified as central to responding to complexities experienced by families within these practice fields. However, there is little research that explores how collaboration happens and what outcomes are produced. This paper reports on a study that reviewed 21 case files between 2015 and 2019 to identify the indicators of collaboration when domestic and family violence are present along with child protection concerns, and what activities and processes enable collaborative practice at these intersections. The study found that collaboration is visible in case files through activities such as information sharing, referral, planning, and case conferencing. However, analysis of case notes and discussions with practitioners revealed that these indicators do not necessarily lead to collaboration consistently. The implication for practice is that effective collaboration is fundamentally relational. It is through relationship building between agencies, practitioners, and families that collaboration is enacted. IMPLICATIONS Collaboration between child protection and domestic and family violence practitioners can be identified through indictors such as information sharing, referral, shared case planning, and shared case conferencing. The democratising of practice can be seen most clearly at case conferences where information is shared for decision making to support victims of domestic and family violence. Collaboration becomes compromised when information is shared without purposeful and meaningful linkages between agencies, or without the goals of responsive service pathways for women and children and a common risk assessment of the perpetrator.
摘要儿童保护、家庭暴力和家庭暴力部门之间的合作已被确定为应对这些实践领域中家庭所经历的复杂性的核心。然而,很少有研究探讨合作是如何发生的以及产生了什么结果。本文报告了一项研究,该研究审查了2015年至2019年间的21份案件档案,以确定在存在家庭暴力和儿童保护问题时的合作指标,以及哪些活动和流程能够在这些交叉点进行合作实践。研究发现,通过信息共享、转介、规划和案例会议等活动,在案例文件中可以看到合作。然而,对案例说明的分析和与从业人员的讨论表明,这些指标并不一定能带来一致的合作。对实践的启示是,有效的合作从根本上讲是关系性的。正是通过机构、从业者和家庭之间的关系建设,才得以开展合作。可以通过信息共享、转介、共享案件规划和共享案件会议等起诉书来确定儿童保护与家庭暴力从业者之间的合作。在案例会议上,可以最清楚地看到实践的民主化,在这些会议上,信息被共享,以供决策支持家庭暴力受害者。当信息共享时,各机构之间没有目的和有意义的联系,或者没有为妇女和儿童提供响应性服务途径的目标,也没有对犯罪者进行共同的风险评估,合作就会受到损害。

Policymakers and practitioners around the globe are being challenged to respond to the complex and diverse needs of vulnerable children and young people. Children and young people in the care system face multiple challenges throughout their childhood (disrupted attachments, exposure to harm, impoverished social and material conditions, and inadequate resources to meet their basic needs) and experience compressed childhoods. They take on adult responsibilities from an early age and become skilled at making do andmanaging challenging circumstances on their own, including taking care of siblings and other family members. Children and young people in the care system have interrupted education pathways and given this experience, and the attendant lack of social and emotional resources, they may miss out on the “ordinary” activities, milestones, and opportunities (such as social and recreational activities) that enable positive futures. These children and young people have struggled to find meaningful support from services and from other trusted adults that lead to better experiences and outcomes (Munford & Sanders, 2019; Munford & Sanders, 2021). For many, service engagement is inconsistent, interventions are episodic, and promises are not delivered; they have not been well supported in their transitions through the care system and in their transition out of the care system. Social workers play a key role in promoting practice that effectively responds to the needs of children and young people in care and supports them to experience positive pathways out of care. Relational practices offer an approach to practice that responds to their unique needs and complex challenges, expands opportunities, and supports them to achieve positive outcomes and realise different futures. Three core elements of relational practice have relevance for the experiences of children and young people in the care system: building a deep understanding of children and young people’s lived experience; establishing trust-based and respectful relationships with children and young people and supporting them to be at the centre of decision-making processes on plans and interventions; and actively engaging children and young people in planning for transitions within and out of the care system. Effective social work practice begins with listening and seeking an understanding of children and young people’s diverse contexts and experiences. This involves taking time to listen, suspending assumptions and judgement, and showing respect for children and young people’s experiences, contexts, values, beliefs, culture, and coping capacities. When social workers listen deeply to their stories and are attuned to learning about their circumstances and the complex issues they have managed, they build a nuanced and deep understanding of children and young people’s everyday lived experiences. This extends the possibilities of social work interventions as hearing children and young people’s perspecti
全球各地的政策制定者和从业者面临着应对弱势儿童和年轻人复杂多样需求的挑战。护理系统中的儿童和年轻人在整个童年时期都面临着多重挑战(依恋中断、受到伤害、社会和物质条件贫困以及资源不足,无法满足他们的基本需求),童年生活也受到了压缩。他们从小就承担起成人的责任,并熟练地适应和处理具有挑战性的环境,包括照顾兄弟姐妹和其他家庭成员。护理系统中的儿童和年轻人中断了教育途径,鉴于这种经历,以及随之而来的社会和情感资源的缺乏,他们可能会错过那些能带来积极未来的“普通”活动、里程碑和机会(如社交和娱乐活动)。这些儿童和年轻人一直在努力从服务和其他值得信赖的成年人那里找到有意义的支持,以获得更好的体验和结果(Munford&Sanders,2019;Munford&桑德斯,2021)。对许多人来说,服务参与不一致,干预是偶发性的,承诺没有兑现;他们在通过护理系统过渡和脱离护理系统的过程中没有得到很好的支持。社会工作者在促进有效满足受照顾儿童和年轻人需求的实践方面发挥着关键作用,并支持他们体验脱离照顾的积极途径。关系实践提供了一种实践方法,可以应对他们的独特需求和复杂挑战,扩大机会,支持他们取得积极成果,实现不同的未来。关系实践的三个核心要素与儿童和年轻人在护理系统中的经历相关:建立对儿童和青年人生活经历的深刻理解;与儿童和青年建立基于信任和尊重的关系,支持他们成为计划和干预措施决策过程的中心;积极让儿童和年轻人参与护理系统内外的过渡规划。有效的社会工作实践始于倾听和寻求对儿童和年轻人不同背景和经历的理解。这包括花时间倾听,暂停假设和判断,尊重儿童和年轻人的经历、背景、价值观、信仰、文化和应对能力。当社会工作者深入倾听他们的故事,并习惯于了解他们的处境和他们所处理的复杂问题时,他们就会对儿童和年轻人的日常生活经历产生细致入微的深刻理解。这扩大了社会工作干预的可能性,因为倾听儿童和年轻人的观点可以深入了解影响他们经历的因素,包括结构性劣势、创伤的影响,以及他们所经历的多重背景压力,包括从小就在护理系统中。Menzies和Grace(2022)在本期文章中报道了一项针对原住民家庭福利从业者的综合培训计划。他们强调了建立对土著社区集体和代际创伤的理解的重要性。这种理解产生了更微妙的

ABSTRACT This article examines child protection policy and practice in Queensland in the 1960s and 1970s, which was a period of major social change affecting relations between children, families, and the state. Using government annual reports from the period, the article traces developments in policy and service delivery. It discusses changes in two interlinked areas: the use of preventative family support approaches and the expansion of the professional knowledge base. Understanding the history of a policy field can facilitate critical reflection on current debates. The child protection field continues to revisit long-standing tensions about the best ways to safeguard children from abuse and neglect in their families, albeit in different ways. IMPLICATIONS It is important to recognise and value the social work profession’s strong contribution to building the child protection knowledge base. Many current debates in child protection are not new: since the child protection field developed in the 1960s, it has continually revisited tensions about how best to intervene to address the individual and social causes of child abuse and neglect. Documenting the history of a social policy field can facilitate critical reflection on current developments.
本文考察了20世纪60年代和70年代昆士兰州的儿童保护政策和实践,这是一个影响儿童、家庭和国家关系的重大社会变革时期。本文利用这一时期的政府年度报告,追溯了政策和服务提供方面的发展。它讨论了两个相互关联领域的变化:使用预防性家庭支助办法和扩大专业知识库。了解一个政策领域的历史可以促进对当前辩论的批判性反思。儿童保护领域继续重新审视长期存在的紧张局势,即保护儿童免受家庭虐待和忽视的最佳方式,尽管方式不同。认识和重视社会工作专业在建立儿童保护知识库方面的巨大贡献是很重要的。目前关于儿童保护的许多争论并不新鲜:自从儿童保护领域在20世纪60年代发展以来,它不断地重新审视关于如何最好地干预以解决儿童虐待和忽视的个人和社会原因的紧张局势。记录一个社会政策领域的历史可以促进对当前发展的批判性反思。

ABSTRACT In Australia, the ongoing structure of settler colonialism has meant understandings of Indigeneity continue to uphold deficit narratives about the lives of Indigenous peoples. The narrative that predominates for Indigenous fathers is often the labels of dysfunctionality, deviance, and disengagement from their children. Using the Longitudinal Study of Indigenous Children data, this article seeks to challenge these deficit narratives to shed light not only on the strengths Indigenous fathers report of their experiences of fatherhood, but also on how fatherhood could be reconceptualised under an Indigenous epistemology. We followed recent efforts and used a strengths-based approach in Indigenous fathering research to counter deficit narratives of Indigenous fatherhood and explore how an Indigenous standpoint can inform approaches to social, cultural, and health and wellbeing practices. We applied a content analysis to answers generated by the question “What is the best thing about being your child's father?” The range of responses suggested a most positive and child-centred experience of fatherhood where Indigenous fathers report the sharing of love and culture with their children as direct contributions to children growing up strong. IMPLICATIONS The findings highlight the significant role of a strengths-based approach focused on relationality to challenge unfair and inaccurate deficit-based narratives of Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander fathers or both. The article identifies the influence of deficit-based narratives of Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander fathers or both as an urgent issue for social work practice to address as such narratives may be implicated in contributing to excessively high rates of child removal.
摘要在澳大利亚,定居者殖民主义的持续结构意味着对愤怒的理解继续支持对土著人民生活的不足叙事。土著父亲的主要叙事往往是功能失调、离经叛道和脱离孩子的标签。利用土著儿童的纵向研究数据,本文试图挑战这些缺陷叙事,不仅揭示土著父亲报告的父亲经历的优势,还揭示在土著认识论下如何重新定义父亲身份。我们遵循了最近的努力,在土著父亲研究中使用了一种基于优势的方法,以对抗土著父亲身份的不足叙事,并探索土著观点如何为社会、文化、健康和福祉实践的方法提供信息。我们对“做孩子的父亲最棒的事情是什么?”这个问题的答案进行了内容分析。一系列的回答表明,土著父亲报告说,与孩子分享爱和文化是对孩子坚强成长的直接贡献。研究结果强调了基于优势的方法在挑战原住民或托雷斯海峡岛民父亲或两者的不公平和不准确的基于赤字的叙述方面的重要作用。这篇文章指出,土著或托雷斯海峡岛民父亲或两者的基于赤字的叙述的影响是社会工作实践需要解决的一个紧迫问题,因为这种叙述可能会导致过高的儿童迁移率。

Afghan Women’s Barriers to Seeking Help for Domestic Violence in Australia 阿富汗妇女在澳大利亚寻求家庭暴力帮助的障碍

ABSTRACT Help seeking for domestic violence is complex and multifaceted, and settling in a new country might make the help-seeking process more challenging and complicated. This study explored the barriers to seeking help for domestic violence, specifically experienced by Afghan women after settling in Australia. The study involved 21 semistructured interviews with newly arrived Afghan women. Interviews were audio recorded and transcribed, and the data were analysed thematically. The barriers Afghan women experienced were embodied in cultural norms to stay in marital relationships, demands to preserve the family’s reputation, personal circumstances, and women’s experiences with, and perspectives on, available services. The findings suggest that policy and practice should recognise those barriers and respond to them in a culturally appropriate way. IMPLICATIONS Domestic violence services’ procedures and processes should be developed based on an understanding of multiple layers of oppression and barriers to seeking help for migrant women. Service providers should apply an intersectional lens along with antioppressive perspectives to address barriers to domestic violence services women experience at different levels. Social workers in domestic violence services need relevant training to provide culturally appropriate services to migrant women.
家庭暴力求助是复杂而多方面的,在一个新的国家定居可能会使求助过程变得更具挑战性和复杂性。这项研究探讨了为家庭暴力寻求帮助的障碍,特别是阿富汗妇女在澳大利亚定居后所经历的障碍。这项研究对新来的阿富汗妇女进行了21次半结构化访谈。访谈被录音和转录,数据被按主题分析。阿富汗妇女遇到的障碍体现在保持婚姻关系的文化规范、维护家庭声誉的要求、个人情况以及妇女对现有服务的体验和看法。研究结果表明,政策和实践应该认识到这些障碍,并以文化上适当的方式应对这些障碍。家庭暴力服务的程序和流程应基于对移民妇女寻求帮助的多层压迫和障碍的理解。服务提供者应采用跨部门的视角和反压制的观点,解决妇女在不同层面经历的家庭暴力服务的障碍。家庭暴力服务的社会工作者需要接受相关培训,以便为移民妇女提供符合文化的服务。

ABSTRACT Relationships are core to effective social work and provide the glue that binds diverse aspects of practice. Relational practice has come under threat in an era of managerialism, yet at the same time, it is undergoing a revitalisation in social work discourse. For practitioners on the ground, this can create something of a dilemma, because while their discipline steers them towards building relationships in their practice, their efforts are often unsupported by their organisations, which potentially adds to their workload. This paper presents Australian research that was designed to explore how social work practitioners in the child welfare field experienced the emotional labour involved in building and maintaining relationships in organisational environments characterised by economic and technical rationalism. In-depth interviews were used to explore how participants managed their feelings and the findings revealed how they had to “dig deep” into personal and professional resources to connect and converse with clients and colleagues in a meaningful way. When considered through a gendered lens, this issue raises questions about the ethics of workload distribution for relational work in a profession that is predominantly female. IMPLICATIONS The process of building relationships can be undermined by organisational environments that are heavily influenced by managerial principles and this can potentially threaten the ethos of relational practice. Practitioners need to sustain critical reflection on the value of relationships in order to maintain focus on them. Considering this issue through a gendered lens raises questions about the ethics of care afforded to practitioners.
人际关系是有效社会工作的核心,是将实践的各个方面结合在一起的粘合剂。关系实践在管理主义时代受到威胁,但与此同时,它在社会工作话语中正在经历复兴。对于现场的从业者来说,这可能会造成某种困境,因为当他们的规程引导他们在实践中建立关系时,他们的努力往往得不到组织的支持,这可能会增加他们的工作量。本文介绍了澳大利亚的一项研究,该研究旨在探索儿童福利领域的社会工作从业者如何在以经济和技术理性主义为特征的组织环境中建立和维持关系所涉及的情绪劳动。深度访谈被用来探索参与者如何管理自己的情绪,调查结果揭示了他们如何“深入挖掘”个人和专业资源,以一种有意义的方式与客户和同事建立联系和交谈。从性别角度来看,这个问题提出了一个问题,即在一个以女性为主的职业中,人际关系工作的工作量分配是否合乎道德。建立关系的过程可能会受到组织环境的破坏,这些环境受到管理原则的严重影响,这可能会潜在地威胁到关系实践的精神。从业者需要保持对关系价值的批判性反思,以保持对关系的关注。考虑到这个问题,通过性别的镜头提出了有关医护人员的道德问题。
