Discriminating baseline indicators for (un)favorable psychosocial development in different 24-h settings
Children referred to foster care, family-style group care, and residential care
Characteristics of Children in Foster Care, Family-Style Group Care, and Residential Care
When risky child and family circumstances cannot be resolved at home, (temporary) 24-h out-of-home placement of the child may be an alternative strategy. To identify specific placement risks and needs, care professionals must have information about the child and his or her family, care history, and social-cultural characteristics at admission to out-of-home care. However, to date information on case characteristics and particular their similariti…
The Family Questionnaire
Efforts to improve the quality of life of children cannot be considered in isolation from the family. In this study, a short family questionnaire (FQ) is presented that clinicians, researchers, and policy makers can use to assess the quality of family functioning. Measured family characteristics are responsiveness, communication, organization, social network, and partner relationship. A total of 2,450 parents (2,011 mothers and 439 fathers) compl…
The Implementation of Families First in the Netherlands
Perceptions of Stigmatization and Satisfaction with Services Received, Among Users of Social Welfare Services for the Child and the Family in 3 European Regions
Exploring Factors Governing Successful Residential Treatment of Youngsters with Serious Behavioural Difficulties
Behavioural development in a random sample of 200 juveniles with serious behavioural difficulties admitted for residential treatment was monitored for a period of 2 years after their admission. By that time, 42 percent of the juveniles had left the treatment centre according to plan, 7 percent were still at the treatment centre and 51 percent had left prematurely. The juveniles who finished their treatment as planned had developed quite well. The…
Perceptions of Stigma and User Involvement in Child Welfare Services
This paper explores the perceptions of social disqualification or ‘stigma’ that service users attributed to public child welfare services in random samples of service users taken from the Netherlands, a part of Spain (Catalonia) and a part of the United Kingdom (Wales). It was found that, in all three samples, foster and residential care invoked the greatest sense of stigma, while the health related and the preventive family services were perceiv…
Psychosocial Risk Characteristics of Children in Welfare Programmes in Holland
To select an optimum kind of welfare service for children `at risk', mental health workers need to adequately assess the psychosocial problems of children. This article presents a multiple risk model with which the psychosocial needs of troubled children can easily be assessed in a uniform way. In a Dutch national sample of 275 children placed in welfare programmes the model proved to be sufficiently reliable. The model is used to describe the me…
Social workers, parents and stigma
This paper draws on an empirical study of stigma and child welfare services in the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, and Spain. It focuses exclusively on the findings relating to the United Kingdom and shows how stigma continues to be a part of the experience of using and delivering child welfare services, despite the positive determination of policies that this should not be so. More optimistically, however, it is also evident that the experience…
Child Welfare and Stigma
This article draws on an empirical study of stigma and child welfare in the Netherlands, the United Kingdom and Spain; it shows how stigma continues to be a part of the experience of using and delivering child welfare services, despite the positive determination of policies in all three countries that this should not be so. More optimistically, however, it is also evident that the experience of stigma and exclusion can be reduced, and the article…
