Structural Competence in Social Work
This article reviews the concept of structural competence as a powerful analytic tool to advance social work education and improve social work pedagogy, practice, and research. Structural competence offers a promising avenue for improving approaches to understanding and addressing the root causes of the social, economic, and health disparities affecting social work clients and historically marginalized communities. A tailored social work definiti…
The ripple effect of relationships
Transformative Experiences During Short-Term Immersion Trips Abroad
An examination of re-referrals and substantiations among families referred to home-based, differential response services and a comparison group
Although some studies have examined child maltreatment recidivism following participation in a home-based, differential response program (HBDR) after a child protective services (CPS) investigation, they often do not include adequate comparison groups, are limited to one outcome, and do not examine outcomes by successful completion. Using administrative data from a Southwestern state including children whose families received HBDR services follow…
Teaching Intersectionality to Enhance MSW Students’ Understanding of Oppression and Privilege
Despite the growing importance of teaching about diversity and its connection to intersectionality, privilege, and oppression in social work education, few studies have examined whether teaching interventions could enhance students’ knowledge of oppression. Thus, this study assessed the extent to which students assimilated content related to intersectionality, privilege, and oppression after an enhanced teaching intervention. Using a one-group pr…
Refocusing Intersectionality in Social Work Education
In this article, we argue that those in social work education should refocus how they conceptualize and teach intersectionality to produce more effective social work practitioners. We emphasize that social work should shift from educating students to evaluate diverse clients as the accumulation of individual identities operating in isolation (e.g., race or ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation) to recognizing how these identities intersect to inf…
Incorporating data-driven decision making in family preservation
Data-driven decision-making (DDDM) in public child welfare (PCW) has become increasingly important with the passage of the Family First Prevention Services Act (FFPSA), making PCW agencies across the U.S. examine their various programs to ensure that they meet the service requirements of FFPSA. Family Preservation (FP) is an important program that is offered by PCW agencies nationwide, yet little is known about how programs like FP can implement …
The intersection of child welfare services and public assistance
Families involved in child welfare services (CWS) and public social services simultaneously, known as dual-system families, have been shown to be at higher risk for repeat child abuse and neglect compared to CWS-only families, yet few studies have examined these families’ characteristics and whether programs like Family Preservation (FP) might help protect their children from a re-report to CPS. Using administrative data on families receiving FP …
An Examination of Needs, Matched Services, and Child Protective Services Re-Report Among Families With Complex Needs
Objective: Matching needs and services among families investigated by child protective services agencies (CPS) may reduce incidents of recidivism, such as re-reports to CPS. Yet, many families under CPS supervision do not receive the matched services they need, or they receive unneeded services. Thus, this study examines the relationship between needs, matched services, and CPS re-report. Method: Data are from a longitudinal study of a community-…
Targeting services to reduce need after a child abuse investigation
The California Linkages Program
Housing instability can complicate parents’ efforts to provide for their children. Child welfare service agencies have had difficulty adequately serving parents’ housing needs due to limited and constrained funding streams. This article integrates the voices of four important stakeholders to illuminate how an innovative model of service system coordination called Linkages addresses housing needs for child welfare‐involved parents eligible for pub…
Post-investigation service need and utilization among families at risk of maltreatment
Location, Location, Location
Objective: Low perceived safety and security might have adverse health consequences, especially for chronically homeless individuals who are at high risk of victimization on the street. Permanent supportive housing (PSH) is an effective strategy to address chronic homelessness and improve residents’ health and well-being. However, it is unclear how formerly homeless individuals’ perceptions of safety and security reflect the objective neighborhoo…
