  • Intimate Partner Violence and Victim-Survivors’ Self-Assessed Risk of Revictimisation

    Open Access•Junjue Jiang, Aron Shlonsky et al.•ARTICLE•Trauma Violence & Abuse•2026

    Intimate partner violence (IPV) revictimisation is associated with innumerable negative consequences for victim-survivors. Accurately assessing the risk of future violence can assist service providers and victim-survivors to implement preventive safety measures. Existing tools assess the risk of revictimisation with variable accuracy – however, these tools rarely ask victim-survivors the extent to which they perceive themselves to be at risk. Tho…

  • Housing and Support Interventions for Homeless Youth in High-Income Countries

    Open Access•David Taylor, Stephanie Vecchio et al.•ARTICLE•Research on Social Work Practice•2026•Referências: 5

    Purpose: Interventions combining housing with support services have emerged as a preferred approach to support homeless youth, however their effectiveness remains uncertain. Method: This systematic review examined such interventions’ impact on outcomes for homeless youth (16–25) in high-income countries, identified their core components, assessed barriers and enablers to implementation, and documented outcome instruments used. We undertook a comp…

  • Somewhere in-between’

    Open Access•Zoë Haysom, Gemma Mckibbin et al.•ARTICLE•The British Journal of Social Work•2026•Referências: 36

    Nations such as Australia rely on foster care to provide for children who cannot live with their family. The foster care role is challenging and unique, combining elements of personal motivations, public responsibility, and intersections of private and public space. Foster carer shortages are also a challenge for many nations. This study presents findings regarding foster carer identity that emerged from a qualitative study exploring foster carer…

    Open Access•David Taylor, Bianca Albers et al.•ARTICLE•Trauma Violence & Abuse•2024

    Young people who transition to adulthood from out-of-home care (OOHC) are more likely to experience a range of poorer outcomes relative to their same-age peers in the community. This systematic review assessed the effectiveness of policies or interventions (hereafter “interventions”) aimed at improving housing, health, education, economic, and psychosocial outcomes for youth leaving OOHC (hereafter “care leavers”).

  • Exploring migrant mothers' experiences of alienation in association with parenting

    Open Access•Taoran Yang, Rebecca Featherston et al.•ARTICLE•Child & Family Social Work•2022

    Alienation describes an individual's sense of separation between themselves and various objects, such as other people, their community or society. Alienation is mediated by a wide range of psychological and social factors, and most people likely experience it in some form across their lifespan. Previous research suggests that migrants may be at an increased risk of experiencing alienation due to the challenges associated with adapting to a new en…

  • Trajectories of psychosocial functioning and attachment behaviors among children adopted in the Ontario child welfare system

    Jackson A Smith, Duane Durham et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Public Child Welfare•2021•Referências: 12

    The adoption of children involved in the child welfare system is viewed as a favorable outcome when family reconstitution is impossible, partially due to the relationship security afforded by long-term placement permanence. Recognition of the importance of secure caregiver-child relationships has informed the development of caregiving-oriented attachment-focused services, such as those provided by the Therapeutic Family Care Program (TFCP). The p…

  • Increasing rigor and reducing bias in qualitative research

    Open Access•Penny Mackieson, Aron Shlonsky et al.•ARTICLE•Qualitative Social Work•2019

    Qualitative research methods have traditionally been criticised for lacking rigor, and impressionistic and biased results. Subsequently, as qualitative methods have been increasingly used in social work inquiry, efforts to address these criticisms have also increased. Applied thematic analysis provides structure and integrates reflexivity in qualitative research using textual data. In this article, we describe how applied thematic analysis was op…

    Aron Shlonsky, Jennifer Ma et al.•ARTICLE•Australian Social Work•2019•Citada por: 1•Referências: 2

    Child protection systems often contend with domestic and family violence (DFV) as a maltreatment concern, yet few large-scale studies have explored how child protection services (CPS) systems respond to DFV compared with other concerns. Secondary longitudinal analysis of administrative data from three Australian State CPS systems finds that the number of DFV reports increased faster than notifications for other concerns, and children reported for…

  • Permanent Care Orders in Victoria

    Penny Mackieson, Aron Shlonsky et al.•ARTICLE•Australian Social Work•2019•Citada por: 3•Referências: 1

    Seeking permanency for children is a central concern of Western child protection and out-of-home care systems, with approaches differing between and within countries. Historically, Australia has not prioritised adoption as a permanency pathway. In the state of Victoria there has been a preference for the use of Permanent Care Orders (PCOs), which have been positioned highly in the permanency hierarchy. Despite their significance, little research …

Such frameworks have been increasingly used in social services for children, youth and families (which include family and parenting support, out-of-home care (foster care) placements, child protection, family violence, juvenile justice and community services). The purposes of thi…

On the other hand, instructors may find themselves in the awkward position of challengin…
