American Indian Women and Sexual Assault

Sexual Addiction/Hypersexuality and the DSM
As the terminology for sexual addiction/hypersexuality has evolved since the 1980s, social workers can benefit from an update and practice guidance.

Do Master’s in Social Work Programs Teach Empirically Supported Interventions? A Survey of Deans and Directors
Objective: A questionnaire to examine efforts toward the teaching of empirically supported interventions (ESI) was mailed to the 165 deans and directors of Council on Social Work Education-accredited Master’s in social work (MSW) programs; 66 (40%) responded.

This article: identifies and explains major prevention concepts and principles; discusses their congruence with social work's historic…

Greater indirect preparation effort (getting informed about sex education materials and opportunities) was predicted by the presence of an adolescent and by mothers’ higher score on molestation history. Greater direct guidance effort (recen…
Mentoring At-Risk Chicano Children and Their Parents
This article discusses a mentoring project aimed at preventing youth violence and attributes initial success to principles of community practice. The program was unique in being housed in the community, targeting young Chicano children for long term mentoring, and providing support for the non-English speaking parents. Focus is on three theoretical elements-mentoring, empowerment, and multicultural consciousness-all of which implicitly embody con…
