To facilitate understanding and assistance to immigrant populations, a framework on stages in the migration process is described and applied to recent Soviet emigres in the United States. Practice examples illustrating issues associated with each of the stages in the migration process are presented. Recent changes in Soviet emigration and United States admission policy responses are discussed in light of their implications for individual and family adaptation and service delivery.

This paper describes a training project for work with Southeast Asian refugees using an integrated family systems approach. The author has found using a model integrating a structural, strategic, life cycle and Milan systemic therapy helpful at three level of project work: consulting with agencies serving the population, training students for this work, and intervening clinically with the refugees themselves.

This paper addresses issues in the settlement of immigrant and refugee groups and discusses the concept of xenophobia (fear of foreigners) as a key factor in inhibiting integration of the newcomers with the dominant host society. A paradigm is proposed for the analysis and assessment of the type and level of integration achieved by various incoming groups. The model looks at immigrants on two dimensions of integration: economic and cultural, and provides four cells for classification: Assimilation, Accomodation, Adaptation and Alienation. The paper argues that economic variables are a primary influence in facilitating integration and reducing xenophobia.

The increased demands of refugee resettlement have directed attention to the role and function of indigenous paraprofessionals, who share a common background experience with the client population. With training and supervision, such paraprofessionals can bridge cultural and linguistic barriers, and serve as role models. This article examines this topic from the experience of the recent Soviet Jewish refugee resettlement program in Boston.

Much concern has been expressed regarding the potential burden on the states to provide health, education, social and mental health services to refugees, immigrants, and newly legalized aliens. Management of social services for refugees and immigrants is an area which has not received much attention in the social work literature. Within the framework of two components of the current immigration policy, this article will examine funding, staffing, service delivery, and information system needs as critical management issues in the resettlement of refugees and in the delivery of social services to eligible legalized aliens in the United States.

The growth of ethnicity as a social force continues to provide an impetus for group work faculty to educate for culture competence in group work practice. This paper presents an instructional approach that helps students learn how to work with ethnic diversities in groups, and integrates cultural considerations into the essential content of group work syllabus. Pedagogical issues and classroom process are described, as are the complex instructional roles and educational functions involved. Opportunities for creative linkage of core group work content to an ethnocultural perspective of group practice are highlighted. Implications are drawn for educational preparation for effective group work practice in multicultural environments.

As evidenced by the last presidential campaign, the African-American male continues to be the subject of extensive stereotyping. Such stereotypes are pervasive. Reinforced by media images, the stereotypes of the African-American male as a sex crazed beast with a penchant for violence aimed at the European-American community is an obstacle to social work in a multicultural society. Individual practitioners may perceive or be perceived on the basis of these stereotypes. The continued effort of social workers to confront these stereotypes is imperative.

We report on findings of an empirical study of knowledge, attitudes and utilization of health related social services by elderly immigrants and native born Americans in Southeast Florida. Major findings based on a random sample of 1438 respondents indicate that immigrant respondents are less healthy, less likely to have a personal physician or medical insurance and are less aware of the health related social services available to them. In addition, our findings indicate that although both groups are basically uninformed with respect to health related social services, the immigrant population is reluctant to use these services even when informed of their availability.
