Ethical considerations with regard to the participants are vital. Ethical is define as of or relating to moral principles or the branch of knowledge dealing with these social issues.

I would also keep information like DOS and social security numbers private as

Homelessness, while widely acknowledged, continues to be an ever-prevalent issue within society. This urged me to take action. In order to compromise an accurate, precise claim, I needed to heavily research and analyze the various aspects of this issue -- specifically regarding the causes of homelessness, addressing the stereotypes and stigmas surrounding it, and by finding solutions at a personal, local, and national level. Initially, I intended to include pathos as a primary theme throughout my sources, but I eventually found logos as a more prevalent, more central theme that appeared throughout each source. Presented primarily through statistics, logos stands as the central theme.

Individuals in this field must have the ability to quickly build rapport with children and adolescents, speak effectively before individuals and groups, willingness to travel for up to six consecutive days (and five nights) in order to participate in out-of-town forensic interview training, and have the ability to pass required the Department of Children and Family Services and criminal background checks (Champaign County, 2014). The Bureau of Labor Statistics did not have information directly pertaining to the salary of forensic interviewers but the salary of private detectives, and the median wage in 2015 was $45,610 (BLS, 2016). The salary of a forensic interviewer is highly dependent upon the amount of experience the individual has in that

Ms. Stevens and her child, Tjayda Stevens are receiving preventive services with Harlem Dowling Westside Center for Children and Family Services (HDWC). Ms. Stevens’ case was referred from ACS and accepted thru HDWC on 03/02/2015. The services provided to Ms. Stevens are casework counseling, community advocacy, housing advocacy, and monthly home based visits to ensure stable family functioning and child safety. Ms. Stevens has been receptive to services since the agency obtained case planning responsibility. Administration for Children’s Services recommended the following service plan for Ms. Stevens to complete parenting and anger management class, individual counseling, and domestic violence.

I am currently on the mental health track, so looking at a potential group that I might encounter would encompass female victims of domestic violence and abuse (DVA) which is also referred to as intimate partner violence (IPV) and rape or sexual assault victims (as statues vary depending on the states definition). Both forms of abuse stem from a power and control dynamic. The use of force during sex is not about sexual pleasure for the perpetrator, instead the pleasure comes from being in a position of power and having control over another human being. The act of hurting and demeaning the woman is the real pleasure.

As a future nurse and past victim, I will do any effort to advocate for prevention of a partner violence. It is a silent epidemic which affects women of all age groups and all races. As a nurse, I will strive to engage in evidence-based research, participate in prevention programs, and advocate for policy changes in the community which I will care for. I am aware that ethical dilemma about reporting or not reporting intimate abuse exists. However, my feelings from negative experience clearly suggests that all abuse against women and children should be documented and reported to authorities. Otherwise, I would be only adding to the issue and deepen the negative health impact of intimate violence’s victim. I also may communicate in open talk, provide references to support groups and access to shelter, and psychological

A strength of PMHS service coordination units is that services are aimed to assist the “whole person.” We meet consumers at their levels, work on what is important to them and create an individualized approach to help each consumer. Additionally, strength of the unit is paperwork. From intake to closing, paperwork provides structure to the unit and stands something tangible for both consumers and SCs to see their progress, even if they still have more work before obtaining all of the consumer’s goals. On the other hand, limitations include a disproportion number of SCs compared to other unit. SCs caseload ranges from 21-26 consumers. SCs are drained and lack self-care when out in the field, which together results in poor execution with notes,

The social work role utilized in Fort Bend women Center is advocating. Fort Bend women Centre advocates for victims. I did not witness any role, but some of the staff that worked with the agency was advocated by the agency. The social work skills I observed in this setting are case management skill, referral skill, and outreach and education skill. Evidence Generalist social work skills I observed in this setting are sheltering. They have homes where the clients rescued from domestic violence and sexual assault will stay until they are fully recovered. One of the values I observed demonstrated by the agency is bringing the clients to the penny wise resale store to select all the items they need such as clothing and shoe. The agency is a big organization that covered domestic, abusive, and sexually assaulted women in Fort Bend County. They employed social work at all level. The social work does a fantastic job by rescuing

In order to eliminate service limitations and identify discrepancies it is critical to bring together community professionals that can utilize their expertise to dismantle barriers. Representatives can be professionals from child welfare, mental health care, medical providers, indigent services, and the criminal justice system (Chanmugam, 2014). As a prospective member of the domestic violence fatality review team in Orange County, Florida, the effectiveness of this community-based response effort must be determined. Although it is a reactive response, the service limitations and changes as a result of a case review are the area of

he issue which is being discussed in this proposal is the young homelessness which is a major issue in Australia. Firstly this proposal will describe the situation of the homeless people in Australia. The homeless people in Australia has been an issue since the arrival of the first fleet. The social stigma on young homeless individuals leads to inequality as they are marginalised from society. A strategy which can help solve this issue is creating more shelter homes and making them easily accessible. Also, within these shelter homes, creating an education system, and providing counselling services, as well as drug and alcohol counselling. This can ensure the children are attending, and the human service workers can view their progress along

Since the very first emergency shelters for survivors of domestic and sexual violence opened in the United States in 1967, survivors have continued to have problems finding available and affordable housing options (History of the battered women 's movement, 2009). In the state of Virginia alone, 3,639 families were turned away due to full shelters in 2013 (Herring, 2014). Of the homeless population surveyed in January 2015 in the city of Richmond, Virginia, 43% reported experiencing domestic violence in the last year (Ackermann, 2015). These statistics speak to not only the prevalence of domestic violence, but also the widespread homelessness that can result when survivors cannot find safe, affordable housing. If

Start counting to the number nine……… In that time a woman was assaulted or beaten in the United States alone according to the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence. That means every minute approximately seven people are a victim of abuse, every hour 402 people, and every day 9,648. These numbers are astonishing and bring to light the tangibility of this issue. Domestic violence exists, it is a serious and an important issue I believe should be brought to the table of conversation. Domestic violence can rip family’s apart, cause people to loose trust in one another, as well as bring victims to their lowest points of self-worth. The abuse can be issued from multiple persons in the family: father to child, mother to child, teenage child

Homelessness is a struggle that most people don’t know, or that people ignore because they frown on homeless people. These people frown on homeless people because the homeless are often unshaven ruff looking people that had a bad turn in life, this life changing event that turned them into what some people frown upon. These people are frowned upon by so many but the people that frown upon them have no idea what their going through.
