Child abuse and neglect (CAN) is a complex issue that is subject to both under- and overreporting; yet, research into the underlying neighborhood-level drivers of these practices remains limited. The current study gathered perspectives from 30 child protective service (CPS) workers and agency leaders in Southern California neighborhoods to identify perceptions of social and contextual neighborhood factors that might influence over- and underreporting of CAN. The data were analyzed using a grounded theory approach, which revealed five themes: (a) neighborhood conflict, (b) neighborhood fear and mistrust, (c) neighborhood norms, (d) poor CAN reporting knowledge, and (e) mandated reporters’ discretion. These themes highlight the potential impact of neighborhood contexts and social dynamics on CAN reporting practices, emphasizing the need for prevention and early intervention neighborhood-level initiatives that improve CPS relationships within their local community.

Family systems theory explains how post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in the family affects family members who must cope with disturbing behaviors from the military member. Although military-related PTSD has been studied in the United States for over a decade, Canadian research is in its infancy. This article focuses on the challenges military families face for both active military members and retired veterans. Corbin and Strauss’ (2015) grounded theory was used to guide this study. Following theoretical sampling, semi-structured in-depth interviews were conducted with 21 non-military parents and 4 adult children in Alberta. The findings have important implications for military families, as well as practice, policy, and research on the topic. Further research could expand the sample to include military members/veterans and families across Canada.
家庭系统理论解释了家庭中的创伤后应激障碍(PTSD)如何影响那些必须应对来自军人的令人不安的行为的家庭成员。尽管美国对与军事有关的创伤后应激障碍的研究已经有十多年了，但加拿大的研究还处于起步阶段。本文关注的是现役军人和退役军人家庭所面临的挑战。本研究采用Corbin and Strauss(2015)扎根理论作为指导。在理论抽样的基础上，对艾伯塔省21名非军人父母和4名成年子女进行了半结构化的深度访谈。这些发现对军人家庭以及有关该主题的实践、政策和研究具有重要意义。进一步的研究可以扩大样本，包括加拿大各地的军人/退伍军人和家庭。

China’s fertility policy and population aging have produced many “4-2-2”–structured sandwich families, placing the sandwich generation under dual caregiving stress. Through reflective lifeworld research and multilevel interviews with 14 “4-2-2” families, we confirmed that the essence of “dual stress” was the competing responsibilities of caring for older adults and children. This essence can be further illustrated by the vulnerability of the cared-for, lack of emotional resources, socio-educational anxiety, and family livelihood pressure. In addition, the dual stress can jeopardize the well-being of the sandwich generation as family caregivers. However, this dilemma can be alleviated by intergenerational support-balancing, alternative digital-technology, and complementary social-care strategies. Understanding the lifeworld of sandwich families presents practical approaches and policy implications for caregiving-support systems.

This article outlines a qualitative metasummary of studies with qualitative findings collected from parents of transgender and gender-nonconforming (TGNC) children. This literature review study describes parents’ experiences of responding to TGNC children. The step of data analysis for this study resulted in a data set of 34 research articles with two primary themes, four subthemes, and 17 findings. The two primary themes represent challenges parents faced and changes they made relating to their TGNC children. We created this report to share with mental health professionals, such as clinical social workers, serving TGNC children and their parents. This metasummary report concludes with recommendations mental health professionals can implement to improve services offered to TGNC child mental health care recipients and their accompanying parents.

This study evaluated the psychosocial outcomes of sexual and gender minorities (SGM) youth attending a community social support group in Central Texas from October 2019 to October 2020. SGM youth are at an increased risk of experiencing depression and social challenges due to hetero and cis-normative social norms. This study examined the efficacy of a group intervention for addressing the challenges of 128 SGM youth who participated in this study. Data collection included levels of social support and depression. Analysis between three groups, newcomers ( n = 67), <6 months attendance ( n = 30), and >6 months attendance ( n = 29), found significant differences among Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale 10 total scores, peer support, significant other support, and overall support with greater support seen in participants with greater attendance. We provide recommendations for community-based organizations to better serve SGM youth per our findings.

The present study of 6- to 13-year-old children in the United States examined bullying victimization’s relationships with social disorganization, social structural factors, social relationships, mental health, access to health insurance, and caregiver types. A sample of 12,966 children aged 6 to 13 years was extracted from the 2018 National Survey of Children’s Health for secondary data analysis. Logistic regression results indicated that these children’s likelihood of being bullied was positively associated with racial discrimination, family violence, child mental health problems (depression, anxiety, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, and behavioral/conduct problems), girls, children aged 6 to 10 years, caregiver education level, and nonrelative caregivers; such likelihood also had negative associations with Blacks, Hispanics, Asians, other ethnic minorities, family cohesiveness, caregiver mental health, and caregiver age. Implications included interventions for family support and bullied children’s mental health problems.

There is a pressing need to improve job satisfaction among child welfare caseworkers given historically high turnover rates that adversely affect family outcomes. Guided by the job demands-resources model, this study examined whether caseworkers’ job satisfaction was associated with their quality of interprofessional collaboration (IPC). Linear regression models were estimated using cross-sectional data provided by the National Child Welfare Workforce Institute. The sample included caseworkers ( N = 1,489) in two states and one urban county in the United States. Results indicated that caseworker job satisfaction increased as their quality of IPC with service providers and court professionals improved. These findings suggest that agency leaders should foster and support IPC as a means of enhancing caseworker job satisfaction.

Under the Trump administration, many immigrants struggled with exclusionary policies that created a climate of fear and uncertainty. Our aim was to investigate which immigrants may be more vulnerable for experiencing policy stress and discrimination during this time period. Employing a cross-sectional design, we recruited U.S. immigrants ( N = 490) to complete an online survey assessing experiences of policy-related stress and discrimination. Multiple regression results showed significant models for both outcome variables, with several vulnerabilities emerging. For policy stress, immigrants who were younger, non-white, and who lived in a household with a lower annual income were more vulnerable. Participants who were second-generation immigrants, younger, male, and non-white reported higher perceived discrimination. Findings suggest that the stress associated with policies and experiences of discrimination varied within the immigrant community, and implications for practice and policy work are discussed.

Engagement is foundational for parents involved in the child welfare system. In this motivation theoretical analysis, we use self-determination theory (SDT) as a framework to organize the extant literature and explain why key casework practices promote parent engagement; offer guidance for caseworkers to recognize indicators of disaffection in their interactions with parents; and illustrate ways to adjust casework practice to better support parent engagement. The analysis points to the importance of caseworker skills in promoting parent engagement, the reciprocal nature of engagement work, and the need for child welfare agencies to similarly provide motivational supports for caseworkers. Promoting parent engagement, and supporting caseworkers in doing this challenging work, is an important pathway toward improving outcomes for parents, children, and families.

Conspiracy theories continue to threaten individuals, groups, and social institutions. They are easily spread through social media and are attractive to many in society. These theories commonly target perceived dangers to those in power and, thus, can undermine both social justice and human rights. Consequently, social work—with its focus on social justice and the person-in-environment framing—must assume a proactive role in dealing with these theories, which includes interventions at many different levels of practice beginning with education. Social work’s goal of achieving inclusive, diverse, and equitable societies demands that the profession assume an active role in challenging these theories.
