Choice and Opportunity
Mixed-income development initiatives target distressed public housing for redevelopment and provide support to low-income families. These initiatives involve an involuntary move for families living in the sites targeted for redevelopment. The objectives of this study were to examine housing relocation, neighborhood change, and family well-being among families (n = 383) affected by the South City Choice Neighborhoods Initiative (CNI) in Memphis, T…

Factors Associated with Fatherhood Program Engagement and Completion
It is evident that father engagement in parenting contributes to child well-being, and fatherhood programs effectively enhance father engagement and employment outcomes. However, program effectiveness can be compromised if participating fathers drop out. This study investigates factors associated with program engagement (i.e., initiating treatment) and completion (i.e., attending 75% or more sessions) with a sample of primarily African American f…
The impact of responsible fatherhood programs on parenting, psychological well‐being, and financial outcomes
The objective of this study was to examine differences in parenting, psychological well‐being, and economic outcomes between fathers receiving two different programs offered by Fathers & Families Support Center for economically disadvantaged fathers: (a) Family Formation (FF), a 6‐week/240‐h program focused on economic stability/mobility, responsible fatherhood, and healthy relationships, with case management and legal services; (b) Economic Stab…
Understanding Mechanisms Driving Family Homeless Shelter Use and Child Mental Health
Homeless shelters throughout the U.S. are overcrowded and under-resourced. Families with children face substantial barriers to timely, successful shelter exit, and prolonged shelter stays threaten child mental health. This community-based system dynamics study explored barriers to timely, successful shelter exit and feedback mechanisms driving length of stay and child mental health risk. Group model building - a participatory systems science tool…
Capability Traps Impeding Homeless Services
Continuums of Care (CoCs) are the primary coordinating bodies for homeless services in the United States. However, the complexities involved in delivering homeless services across interagency networks challenges coordination and system improvement. CoC governance, planning, and service provision have received little attention in academic literature, and thus, Continuums attempt to manage complex systems with little guidance. This evaluation appli…
Social Cohesion, Neighborhood Collective Efficacy, and Adolescent Subjective Well‐being in Urban and Rural Taiwan
This study investigates the association between neighborhood social cohesion, collective efficacy, and adolescent subjective well‐being in a nationally representative sample of Taiwanese youth. The study represents a first to adapt and test a developmental ecological model within a Chinese cultural context. Data came from the Taiwan Youth Project, which assessed representative samples of seventh graders ( n = 2,690) and ninth graders ( n = 2,851)…
Parenting and the association between maternal criminal justice involvement and adolescent delinquency
Hypermobility and Educational Outcomes
The school mobility rate in St. Louis Public Schools was 40% in 2011-2012, meaning that nearly half of students exited or entered a given school midway through the school year. This alarmingly high rate of churning across schools is accompanied by high neighborhood turnover, particularly within low-income, urban neighborhoods. This constant, disruptive change presents a serious and fundamental challenge for urban education. In this article, we su…
Homelessness and aging out of foster care
Permanent Housing for Child Welfare‐Involved Families
Highlights Inadequate housing and homelessness contribute to risk for child placement into out‐of‐home care. Permanent housing through the child welfare system aims to decrease risk for child maltreatment. A RCT through child welfare referred homeless families for permanent housing or housing services. Marginal treatment differences existed on change in caregiver‐reported maltreatment over 2.5 years. Child welfare services remain important in ens…
Housing and Child Well Being
Highlights Inadequate housing and homelessness threaten family stability and child development. A growing body of research links inadequate housing and homelessness with the child welfare system. At‐risk youth and families interact with various service systems, which are rarely coordinated. These 13 papers inform coordinated responses to inadequate housing in the child welfare system
Housing and Child Welfare
Highlights A review of housing interventions reveals systemic constraints for scale‐up in child welfare. Current practices that target highest risk families may diminish effectiveness and increase demand. Scale‐up provides opportunities to better coordinate housing services with the child welfare system
Kinship Foster Care Among African American Youth
This study investigated the effects of kinship foster care on mental health outcomes among African American youth. Longitudinal data were used from a nationally representative sample of children and adolescents who were the subject of child protective services investigation from 1999 to 2000 ( n =5,501). The secondary analyses focused on African American youth ( n =225) placed into foster care. In structured interviews, current caregivers reporte…
Time-Limited Case Management for Homeless Mothers With Mental Health Problems
Objective: In this study we test the effect of a time-limited case management model targeting homeless mothers who are experiencing mental health problems. Adapted from an empirically informed intervention to prevent recurrent homelessness among individuals, the Family Critical Time Intervention (FCTI) supports mothers with children for a 9-month period as they move from homeless shelters into affordable housing. The case management team uses a s…
Longitudinal Impact of a Family Critical Time Intervention on Children in High‐Risk Families Experiencing Homelessness
A randomized trial compared effects of a Family Critical Time Intervention (FCTI) to usual care for children in 200 newly homeless families in which mothers had diagnosable mental illness or substance problems. Adapted from an evidence‐based practice to prevent chronic homelessness for adults with mental illnesses, FCTI combines housing and structured, time‐limited case management to connect families leaving shelter with community services. Famil…

Inadequate Housing Among Families Under Investigation for Child Abuse and Neglect
This study aimed to estimate the prevalence of inadequate housing that threaten out‐of‐home placement among families under investigation by child welfare. Data came from the National Survey of Child and Adolescent Well‐Being, a nationally representative longitudinal survey of child welfare‐involved families. Child protective services caseworkers as well as caregivers provided information on families whose child remained in the home after initial …
Family, public and private religiousness and psychological well-being over time in at-risk adolescents
Positive effects of different dimensions of religiousness (including private, public and familial) on well-being as well as the stress buffering effects of religiousness have been documented. However, relatively little research has explored how these different facets of religiousness are related to psychological well-being in at-risk adolescents. This study examined family, public and private religiousness and their protective influence on psycho…
Emerging Adulthood and Leaving Foster Care
The present study examined the role of contextual support on mental health during the transition to adulthood within a vulnerable group, adolescents leaving foster care because of their age. Participants were 265 19- to 23-year-olds who retrospectively reported on 3 main contexts of emerging adulthood: housing security, educational achievement, and employment attainment in the first 2 years after leaving foster care. Mental health measured self-r…
Pathways to and From Homelessness and Associated Psychosocial Outcomes Among Adolescents Leaving the Foster Care System
Objectives. We evaluated the prevalence and nature of housing problems among adolescents leaving foster care because of their age to provide evidence that can inform public and programmatic policies designed to prevent homelessness. Methods. Housing and psychosocial outcomes in a sample of 265 adolescents who left the foster care system in 2002 and 2003 in a large midwestern metropolitan area were evaluated over a 2-year follow-up period. Analyse…
The many histories of community psychology
Forty years since the seminal Swampscott Conference, the principles of community psychology transcend multiple areas of action and research, as well as international boundaries. The extensive development of community psychology offers an opportunity to examine from where the field has come and where it is going. Yet, a systematic approach to creating a history of community psychology is required to avoid distorting or excluding the voices of its …
Personal lineages and the development of community psychology
The purpose of this study was twofold: (a) to examine and document the role of personal influence in the history of community psychology, and (b) to measure the field's inclusion of traditionally marginalized populations. In addition to presenting visually the genealogy of community psychology, results suggest that people have mattered in the development of the field independently from intellectual influence. Furthermore, community psychology has…

Community violence and externalizing problems
The present study examined racial differences in the relationship between exposure to community violence and public and private religiosity in predicting externalizing problems among at‐risk emerging adults. Participants were 178 African American and 163 European American emerging adults at risk for exposure to community violence. Exposure to community violence related to more externalizing problems. Greater public religious affiliation buffered …
