This book was released on 2022-04-01 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume explores methods for studying child maltreatment in the context of neighborhoods and communities, given their importance in the lives of families. It discusses the ways in which neighborhoods have changed over time and how this that has impacted parenting in the modern context. It also highlights the ways in which policies have contributed to persistent poverty and inequality, which indirectly impacts child maltreatment. An important focus of this volume is to examine the multitude of ways in which the neighborhood context affects families, including structural factors like poverty, segregation, residential instability, and process factors like social cohesion. The volume takes a critical look at the ways in which culture and context affect maltreatment through a community-based approach, and uses this approach to understand child maltreatment in rural areas. The editors and contributors explore innovative prevention approaches and reflect on the future of this field in terms of what remains unknown, how the information should be used to guide policy in the future, and how practitioners can best support parents while being mindful of the importance of context. Addressing an important topic, this volume is of relevance and interest to a wide readership of scholars and students in the social and behavioral sciences, as well as to practitioners and policy makers working with neighborhoods and communities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Child maltreatment is a significant public health concern. Previous research on factors that influence child maltreatment has focused largely on child and familial characteristics. Emerging research on the etiology of child maltreatment has been examining the way in which neighborhood affects child maltreatment, such as neighborhood structural characteristics and neighborhood social processes. One of the major gaps in the research on the impact of neighborhood on child abuse and neglect is the examination of immigrant families. Following social disorganization theory, this study explored the relationships between neighborhood structural characteristics, neighborhood social processes, and child maltreatment among immigrant families. This study used the Fragile Families and Child Wellbeing Study Wave 1 and Wave 4, and examined a total of 372 foreign-born mothers and their children living in 325 neighborhoods in 20 large U.S. cities.A multilevel structural equation model demonstrated that foreign-born mothers living in neighborhoods with higher levels of negative structural characteristics reported higher levels of physical assault, higher psychological aggression, and higher neglect. Conversely, foreign-born mothers having higher levels of positive social processes reported lower levels of physical assault, lower psychological aggression, and lower neglect. However, neighborhood social processes mediated the relationships between neighborhood structural characteristics and physical assault and psychological aggression among immigrant families, respectively. These results highlight the positive role of neighborhood social processes in reducing child maltreatment among immigrant families, even in disadvantaged neighborhoods. They also suggest that ecological multitier social work interventions that consider immigrants' cultural contexts may deserve attention as possibly effective in reducing maltreatment of children in immigrant families.

This book was released on 2014-03-25 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Each year, child protective services receive reports of child abuse and neglect involving six million children, and many more go unreported. The long-term human and fiscal consequences of child abuse and neglect are not relegated to the victims themselves -- they also impact their families, future relationships, and society. In 1993, the National Research Council (NRC) issued the report, Under-standing Child Abuse and Neglect, which provided an overview of the research on child abuse and neglect. New Directions in Child Abuse and Neglect Research updates the 1993 report and provides new recommendations to respond to this public health challenge. According to this report, while there has been great progress in child abuse and neglect research, a coordinated, national research infrastructure with high-level federal support needs to be established and implemented immediately. New Directions in Child Abuse and Neglect Research recommends an actionable framework to guide and support future child abuse and neglect research. This report calls for a comprehensive, multidisciplinary approach to child abuse and neglect research that examines factors related to both children and adults across physical, mental, and behavioral health domains--including those in child welfare, economic support, criminal justice, education, and health care systems--and assesses the needs of a variety of subpopulations. It should also clarify the causal pathways related to child abuse and neglect and, more importantly, assess efforts to interrupt these pathways. New Directions in Child Abuse and Neglect Research identifies four areas to look to in developing a coordinated research enterprise: a national strategic plan, a national surveillance system, a new generation of researchers, and changes in the federal and state programmatic and policy response.

Download or read book Preventing Child Maltreatment in the U.S. written by Melissa Phillips and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2022-09-16 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Child maltreatment occurs in the Black community at higher rates than any other racial group. Given the prevalence of child maltreatment risk factors in the Black community, such as being in a low-income family, single parent family, greater exposure to physical discipline, and less access to services and resources, it is not surprising but nonetheless concerning that Black children are at greater risk for abuse and/or neglect. Unearthing the cause and effect between the challenges faced by the Black community and the life outcomes for Black children is key to making positive changes happen. Through a feminist and womanist lens, the authors unpack the range of factors that intersect and impact the Black community that are necessary to address to effectively protect Black children. Understanding how to prevent maltreatment and promote health and wellness are essential to adequately address maltreatment so as to protect and empower Black children.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The current system of protecting society's children from abuse is failing miserably. In this volume, scholars affiliated with universities and professional associations nationwide pinpoint a better strategy. Their research spotlights neighborhood-based child protection systems and provides a comprehensive approach for creating procedures that meaningfully address child maltreatment. The volume discusses the challenges of moving toward such a system within the current legal, political, and cross-cultural contexts of child protection. Examples of promising applications of a community-based approach are cited. Also cited are the legal and practical structural steps to be taken in creating caring communities that effectively address child abuse and neglect.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past decade the relationship between communities, children and families has inspired a wealth of research and policy initiatives because of a growing belief that the breakdown of families and communities is a significant factor in social problems, including child abuse and juvenile crime. The latest policy initiatives to tackle social problems have therefore targeted communities as well as high risk families. This title amalgamates the latest research on the relationship between children, families and communities and explores policy and practice implications. Material for practitioners and community development workers is also be included. The book is divided in to three parts: 1) theory 2) the effect of community on children, parents and families 3) interventions and policy implications.
