Perspectives and Propositions on Resilience as Interdisciplinary, Multilevel, and Interdependent
The concept of resilience is surging in popularity, but relevant discussions are often disconnected from one field to another. To prompt integration of disparate conversations on resilience, we examine the concept’s origins etymologically, genealogically, and by analyzing the interdependencies of drinking water and public health systems in six academic disciplines and practice-oriented fields. These disciplines are engineering, social work, urban…
High Impact Practices in Graduate Education: Preparing Social Work Students for Careers in Child Welfare
Turnover rates of the child welfare workforce continue to rise, resulting in poor outcomes for children and families. Efforts to improve readiness and retention are needed to better prepare child welfare workers. This case study uses a qualitative analysis research method to explore high impact practice (HIP) focusing on a training program that seeks to prepare students for and effectively transition to a career in child welfare. HIPs are defined…
Antibiotic Knowledge, Beliefs, and Behaviors: Testing Competing Hypotheses Using an Urban Community Sample
Antibiotic use and misuse continue to be a worldwide concern with the increasing rate of antimicrobial resistance, lack of new antibiotics in the pipeline, and rising health care costs. Despite studies that attempt to distinguish between factors associated with antibiotic use and misuse (e.g., knowledge and beliefs and provider-patient communication), few studies have tested comparative hypotheses related to antibiotic use behavior. This study 1)…

Stress, Coping, Resilience and Trust during the Flint Water Crisis
In 2014, government officials in the City of Flint, Michigan switched the municipal water source from the Detroit Water System (water source: Lake Huron) to the Flint River. During this time, an estimated 102,000 Flint residents were potentially exposed to multiple chemical (e.g., lead) and biological threats (e.g., Legionella). After the switch to water sourced from the Flint River, Flint residents consistently reported concerns over water quali…
Enhancing Aging Services through Evidence-Based Health Promotion: A Training for Service Providers
During the next several decades, increasing numbers of older Americans will suffer chronic illnesses and many will face challenges due to growing racial and economic health disparities. Agencies serving older adults need to respond by creating and promoting evidence-based health promotion (EBHP) practices to address the growing diversity among older adults in urban areas. One such agency, the Detroit Area Agency on Aging recently partnered with t…

The Interrelationship Between Program Development Capacity and Readiness for Change Among Small to Mid-Sized Nonprofits
Based on survey data from 396 small to mid-sized nonprofit organizations operating within Southeast lower Michigan, this article examines the relationship between program development capacity and readiness for change and the predictors of these two components of capacity building among small to mid-sized nonprofits. It uses a simultaneous equation approach as the basis for examining the relationship between program development capacity and readin…
Supporting and Sustaining Grassroots Youth Organizations: The Case of New Detroit
Grassroots organizations have a central place in service provision within many urban communities, particularly as they work with young people. Enhancing the potential of youth serving organizations is vital as many of these small groups lack infrastructure and resources. One organization has gone beyond grant making to organizations to include providing technical assistance, then moving to a model of capacity building to improve their ability to …

Conducting Research with American Indians: A Case Study of Motives, Methods, and Results
Historically, many researchers whose sole purpose was to conduct research to further their own professional development have exploited Native Americans. Outside of participating as subjects, American Indians were rarely involved in the development of the research and the instrumentation or informed about the results. More recently, research has been conducted with Native Americans who have played a lead role in the research process emphasizing is…
Comparing Policy Process Frameworks: What Do They Tell Us About Group Membership and Participation for Policy Development
Theoretical models impose a framework for viewing the policy process. Some emphasize institutional rules. Others focus on beliefs and values. This research, using a case study of substance abuse policy development within a local community context, examines three frameworks: the advocacy coalition framework (ACF), bureaucratic politics framework, and institutional analysis and development framework (IADF). The frameworks examine an early stage of …
