“From under the hatches”
As automated decision-making tools and surveillance become increasingly embedded within systems of care, there is an urgent need for analytical frameworks and resistance practices created and informed by those most impacted. Inspired by Dark Sousveillance , this commentary draws on a collaborative community research project with two grassroots organizations in Los Angeles to demonstrate how oppositional knowledge can be used to analyze and resist…
Unfortunately what’s right isn’t always what’s best”
Mandated reporting is the current system in place for school personnel to support youth whom they suspect have experienced maltreatment. However, limited research details the experiences of mandated reporters. Thus, the current study utilizes reflexive thematic analysis to explore how school personnel identify and respond to suspected abuse. Analysis of interviews with 14 school personnel who made reports resulted in three themes: (1) the subject…
Family Policing and the Carceral State
Administrative Burdens in Child Welfare Systems
Public policy often imposes administrative burdens that constrain people’s ability to access benefits and affirmatively exercise fundamental rights. In this article, we extend the administrative burden framework to argue that the state also places burdens on people who have involuntary contact with coercive state institutions, such as the child welfare system. Just as administrative burdens lock “undeserving,” marginalized populations out of bene…
Reflections on the Ethical Possibilities and Limitations of Abolitionist Praxis in Social Work
Since 2020, blatant forms of state violence within the United States have reignited attention in the field of social work, where numerous calls have been made to realign and reconsider our standing ethical values and principles. Individually, social workers are beginning to reckon with the field's role within the carceral ecosystem and reimagining practice outside the confines of the carceral state. Institutionally, however, social work's profess…
What I Would Do to Take Away Your Pain
Research identifies that families of children with medical complexities in the United States have diverse and complex needs. Despite research emphasizing that families demonstrate higher needs that are not being met, limited research focuses solely on mothers of children with medical complexities. Specifically, how mothers understand and identify themselves, understand and define their role in coordinating care, and how they view their own mental…
Untangling the Effects of Covid-19 on Youth Employment
The COVID-19 pandemic has heightened the level of uncertainty experienced by many young people around the world and has complicated the developmental tasks associated with the transition to adulthood, including leaving home, completing education, and obtaining full-time employment. We are just beginning to understand the more immediate effects of the pandemic, but research from previous crises and economic recessions suggests that there will like…
“It's the Only System We've Got”
Front-line public “Child Welfare” caseworkers, also known as emergency response or investigative caseworkers, play a significant role in the “Child Welfare” system. Placed in an intermediary role within the system, investigative caseworkers are tasked with making critical decisions while attempting to advocate for families and uphold the system’s policies. To understand the caseworker decision-making processes more in-depth, a qualitative study w…
Centering unacknowledged histories
The Adoption and Safe Families Act of 1997 has now been actively implemented in the United States for 24 years and remains largely unchanged from its initial conception. Initial critiques of ASFA included questions around the ethics of its requirements and the efficiency of its proposed goals. Subsequent to the original adoption of ASFA into legislation, the National Association of Black Social Workers published a statement calling for its repeal…
