Displacement Pressure and the Health Consequences of Neighborhood Change
Neighborhood change, including residential turnover and shifts in local investment, can create significant psychological, social, and economic strain for long-term residents who remain in place. While much of the research on neighborhood change focuses on residential mobility and displacement, less attention has been given to the chronic stress experienced by those who stay. This paper introduces a conceptual model of displacement pressure, defin…

Parenting styles are associated with overall child dietary quality within low-income and food-insecure households

Concordance and Discordance of the Knowledge, Understanding, and Description of Children's Experience of Food Insecurity Among Hispanic Adults and Children
Food insecurity is highly detrimental for children, who experience food insecurity differently than do adults. We aimed to understand concordance and discordance of adults' and children's knowledge, understanding, and description of children's experience of food insecurity. In-depth interviews were conducted with the primary caregiver, another caregiver, and a child 9 to 16 years of age in 16 Hispanic families at risk of food insecurity in South …

Early Childhood Education and Care Content for the Social Work Curriculum
Social workers are poised to play an important role in early childhood education and care (ECEC) settings; however, they need the knowledge and skills necessary to make a meaningful contribution. This article presents learning activities that infuse ECEC content, centered on the following four areas for social work education: (1) history of the profession, (2) observation of current practice, (3) culturally competent service delivery, and (4) adv…
Early Care and Prekindergarten Care as Influences on School Readiness
Child care is increasingly viewed as an opportunity to enhance children's development and school readiness, with prekindergarten programs and early intervention programs targeting children at different moments of development. Results of existing research are mixed, and although many children experience different child care arrangements at different ages, little is known about the joint influence of early and later child care experiences. Using Ea…

Poverty, Race, and the Contexts of Achievement
This article considers issues of educational inequality in the U.S. South from a social work/ social justice perspective. After a review of existing literature and discussion of cultural versus structural explanations for race and socioeconomic status gaps in academic achievement, findings are presented from a study examining child-, classroom-, and school-level factors that influence academic achievement among public school children in the South…
Chicks Aren’t Chickens
This article describes the marital and domestic violence experiences of poor women in South Carolina in the context of an orthodoxy of conservatism. Drawing on Bourdieu’s scholarship, the authors present a conceptual framework that is based on the concepts of habitus, orthodoxy, and heterodoxy. The interpretation of the qualitative and quantitative data connects the observed behavioral phenomena with the structural, cultural, and political factor…
It's Just Not All Teenage Moms
Social support is often used in family services, implicitly or explicitly, as a tool for enhancing family functioning. Using data from a focus group study, this article explores aspects of the relationships parents develop through participation in a family support program. Program structures and processes shaping relationships are also considered. Findings are then interpreted through a social capital theoretical lens, and implications for practi…
Research for Progressive Change
Social work research about poverty is complex, ideally blending academic efforts with a social justice professional agenda. But the translation between research and practice is challenged by a poor fit between the increasingly dominant economic models used in much poverty research and the political contexts in which poverty is shaped and experienced. This article argues for the relevance of Pierre Bourdieu’s scholarship to a social work poverty r…
