Threats to Academic Freedom
Academic freedom, and the closely related concept of free speech, is challenged by actors across the political continuum. After reviewing the growing threats to academic freedom and the attendant effects on faculty, we describe eight reasons why social workers should support the free speech rights of faculty. Specifically, we contend that academic freedom: (a) enhances educational quality, (b) supports the social work profession’s ethics and stan…
Development and Application of an Objective Structured Clinical Examination for Practicing Integrated Behavioral Health Skills
Simulation-based learning has emerged as a promising method for training preprofessional students in the field of social work. Simulation-based learning allows students to practice important skills, build confidence and self-efficacy, and receive competency-based assessment and instructor feedback. An objective structured clinical examination (OSCE) is one of the most established tools for providing objective assessment and feedback for students …
“My Hands Are Tied”
Latinx immigrant communities experienced disproportionate economic and health consequences from COVID-19. Although social service organizations have been on the frontlines to meet the complex social service needs of this population, little is known about their experiences working with this vulnerable group in the first phase of the pandemic (during “shutdowns”). Using multiple case study methods, this case study integrates survey responses from L…

However, its collateral consequences on adolescents’ sleep patterns, dietary behaviors and physical activity involvement remain unclear. This study uses the Fragile Family and Chil…

Method: A cross-sectional su…
I’ve Always Been Discounted, and I Don’t Feel Discounted Here”
Community integration following the experience of chronic homelessness is a key principle of Housing First programming, yet it is scantily addressed or studied. Originally developed in New York, the Restorative Community Collaborative program shows promise in building meaningful community integration and improving outcomes among individuals who have experienced chronic homelessness. This convergent mixed-method study describes outcomes for this a…

A National Survey of Probation Staff of the Needs, Services and Barriers of Female Youth in Juvenile Justice Settings
Despite a growing awareness and documentation of the growing proportion of justice-involved girls and their unique needs over the last three decades, federal efforts to disseminate gender-responsive priorities have largely been unsuccessful. The purpose of this national, cross-sectional survey of juvenile justice staff was to describe the current implementation of gender-responsive programming, the degree to which it is empirically supported, the…
A Mixed-Methods Investigation of Licensed Masters-Level Social Worker’s Engagement in Outcome Evaluation

Content analysis was used to identify ways in which social workers reported evaluating practice outcomes. Results Evaluation methods identified were (1) not consistently evaluating client outcomes, (2) completi…
The Rise of Genetic Genealogy, and the Need for Social Work’s Voice
According to the MIT Technology Review, by the start of 2019, over 26 million people worldwide have participated in direct-to-consumer genetic testing (DTCGT), such as 23andMe and GEDmatch (Regalado, 2019). DTCGT firms specialize in different areas including ancestry, familial relatedness, athletic traits, character/personality, and nutrigenetics (Hogarth & Saukko, 2017). Genetic genealogy is a branch of science that analyzes deoxyribonucleic aci…
Understanding the Linkages Between Parental Monitoring, School Academic Engagement, Substance Use, and Suicide Among Adolescents in U.S
Achieving Justice for Girls in the Juvenile Justice System
Female involvement in the juvenile justice system has steadily increased in the United States over the past three decades. During this time, as male arrests have declined, female arrests have increased. Although many social workers have responded to these trends with a national call to identify and address the unique needs of these girls, we lack much high-quality research, including empirically supported interventions or programming to serve the…

International Migration Review, 43, 496, 2009). These new immigrant settlement cities experience the challenge of adapting their social care …
Choices-Teen
The results suggest strong acceptability and feasibility with high client satisfaction and client/therapist ratings, 91% session completion, and positive open-ended responses. All youth were at risk at baseline, with the following proportions at reduced risk at follow-up: AEP (90% 1-month; 71.4% at 3-months; TEP (77% of smokers (n=17) at reduced risk at 1-month; 50% at 3-months); and HIV (52.4% 1-month; 28.6% at 3-months)
Benchmarks for Evaluating Life Review and Reminiscence Therapy in Alleviating Depression among Older Adults
The efficacy of reminiscence and life review (LR) therapy in alleviating depression among older adults is well established. However, providers in nonresearch settings might implement these interventions inadequately, and such settings rarely can evaluate their outcomes using control groups. Alternatively, evaluators in such settings can calculate a within-group effect size and then compare it with average within-group effect size benchmarks deriv…

Assessment of a Service Provider Self-Study Method to Promote Interorganizational and Community Collaboration
With an emphasis by both public and private funding sources on community-level service integration, many social service organizations have been required to shift from traditional "silo" models of service delivery to increased community-based collaboration and service coordination.
