Integrating family-based interventions into specialty court programs
BACKGROUND: The intersection of sex trade involvement and substance use disorder is a deeply complex and tragic issue for many women, as decades of research reflect that traditional substance use treatment modalities often fail to meet many of these women's unique needs. Sex trafficking specialty court programs constitute a unique and promising avenue to deliver evidence-based practices to treat substance use disorders and to support health and w…
Characteristics, Experiences, and Perceptions of Family Members of Sex Trafficking Specialty Court Participants
15) identified as supportive by women participating in a sex trafficking specialty court program, a qualitative study was conducted. Findings reflect that family members, especially those with their own experiences with substance use and sex trade involvement, demonstrated empathy, resilience, and strong desires to support participants' treatment success. Despite complex relational histories, participants presented with several protective charact…
Design thinking for city dashboard development
The city dashboard has become an integral component of smart city asset management systems. It leverages data collected from multiple sources to monitor performance and enable evidence‐based decision making. This article investigates the use of a design thinking framework to develop a functional and easy to understand city dashboard. The Smart Social Spaces project is used as a case study to illustrate how design thinking can be employed to devel…
Liking, Tweeting and Posting
Through data-driven analysis, this article maps the use of various social media platforms in a local government municipality, Georges River Council (GRC), in New South Wales, Australia from 2016 to 2019. We examine underlying dynamics of citizen engagement in Council’s projects and activities through their Facebook page, their Twitter account and Instagram feeds, using social network analysis and content analysis as two main methods of enquiry. T…
Connecting mothers to care
BACKGROUND: ("Connecting Mothers"). Liga Inan was designed as a sustainable and scalable effort that would support MoH efforts to improve maternal and newborn health care-seeking and home practices. Key aims were to use mobile phone technology to improve communication between pregnant women and their MoH health providers and to increase optimal maternal health behaviors. MoH health staff registered pregnant women into Liga Inan at their first ant…
Towards a nuanced understanding of health-supportive place using composite research methods
Chronic non-communicable diseases comprise a major challenge for health in contemporary Australia and across the globe and, while various factors are at play, personal choices in behaviour and lifestyle are significant. The physical make-up and ongoing management of the places where we live positively and negatively influences these lifestyle choices and subsequent health outcomes. However, responses-in research, policy, built environment design,…
What is a Healthy Sustainable Built Environment? Developing Evidence-Based Healthy Built Environment Indicators for Policy-Makers and Practitioners
Healthy built environments place people and communities at the heart of urban planning, encouraging decision-making based on human health, well-being and environmental sustainability. This paper describes the development of a set of indicators to assist in this endeavour—by translating and linking the research evidence base with policy-makers and other practitioners. The paper describes how the indicators were chosen, contextualized and subsequen…

The Three Domains of Urban Planning for Health and Well-being
Urban planning has an important role to play in supporting human health. While this is increasingly recognized in a burgeoning interdisciplinary body of literature, there remains an ongoing need to clarify and conceptualize the relationship between planning and health. This is especially the case from the perspective of built environment professionals, as they increasingly focus on health and well-being issues. The key contribution of this articl…

Healthy Built Environments Supporting Everyday Occupations
Occupation is intrinsic to human health and occupations emerge from environmental opportunities. They are shaped by features of the context in which they happen. Yet the places where many people live out their everyday lives are not supportive of health. Car-dominated transport systems, reduced opportunities to be physically active, limited opportunities to access healthy food, and fewer places for people to connect with each other to build safe …

Student Experiences of Work-Based Learning in Planning Education
Of various approaches to teaching planning in practice, work-based or integrated learning retains vital relevance in many planning programs. There are strong rationales in pedagogic, professional development, employment, and personal terms. But what of student experiences of work experience? How do student planners approach, experience, and reflect on workplace engagements? This article explores these experiential dimensions through a survey of a…
Multicultural Policy within Local Government in Australia
This paper examines results from an Australia-wide survey of multicultural policies at the level of local government. Multicultural policies have the potential to advance a local 'politics of difference', recasting governance, such that citizenship is expanded. Multicultural policies are described in terms of access and equity programmes, community relations policies and symbolic representations of cultural diversity and inclusive citizenship. Th…
The Local Politics of Difference
A national survey of multicultural policy reveals that attempts by Australian local government to foster good intercommunal relations between cultural groups are poorly developed. Local government authorities (known as 'councils') limited their involvement to supporting festivals and information provision campaigns, often aimed at building Anglo-Celtic tolerance of other groups. Most community relations projects and policies were forms of exotic …

Older People, Crisis, and Loss
Older people are no less prone to experiences of crisis and loss than any other age cohort. Indeed, it could be argued that this group is even more prone to such experiences, although both the therapeutic literature on crisis intervention and the thanatological literature on loss and grief pay relatively little heed to the needs and circumstances of older people. This article therefore seeks to go some way toward redressing the balance by explori…
Parents of adults with mental retardation living in-home and out-of-home
Interviews with parents of adult children with mental retardation were conducted to identify differences in caregiver burdens and gratifications, based on in-home and out-of-home placement. Parental responses indicate that caretakers of adult children with mental retardation are worried and feel responsibility for their care regardless of residential placement of the adult child
