This article reports on a training program for group home supervisors that was designed to utilize positive youth development
principles in work with youth transitioning from care to independent living. Over a period of 5 months, eight one-day training
sessions took place across one state in the U.S. (Massachusetts) with a total of 186 group care staff in attendance. The evaluation
consisted of three components: observation of participant feedback during training, training day post-test, and follow-up
with participants 2–3 months after training. Implications of the data, particularly barriers to implementation of training
programs, are discussed. 相似文献

Abstract The authors identify and discuss the planning process and results of a three-year minority recruitment effort.

Each phase is discussed along with the tasks and strategies which proved to be effective. 相似文献

The groups deliberately formed by nongovernmental organizations to organize the poor for their development are often subgrouped for better performance. In this connection, the study investigates the extent subgroups contribute to group performance, the mechanisms that lead to the contribution of subgroups to group performance, and changes in the contribution of subgroups to the performance of a group. Altogether 239 Bangladesh Rural Advancement Committee groups, i.e., village organizations (VOs), with and without subgroups were investigated. The VOs with subgroups performed better than those without subgroups. The performance of the VOs with subgroups, however, declined over time. One of the reasons why effectiveness of VOs with subgroups declined was the belief that pursuing subgroup responsibilities would not bring any personal gain for members. 相似文献

In this article, the development of a process for group supervision is outlined, and placed in context. Most of us, as Family Therapists, spend time participating in group supervision, whether because of the mandatory requirements of training and qualifications, or because we regard supervision groups as an important vehicle for support, professional development, and accountability. Peer supervision groups particularly, and group supervision generally, have been under-explored in the literature. As a ‘supervisor,’ I developed this structure with the aim of facilitating a group process that is empowering for the therapist presenting his/her work, and creatively involving for the group members. 相似文献

The purpose of this article is to explore the wide spectrum of external influences that affect career decision making across the life span and, in particular, how these factors may directly or indirectly alter one's career trajectory and the extent of one's work volition. Career development practitioners are encouraged to respect externally oriented frameworks, explore the social influence of career choice alternatives faced by clients, encourage clients to voice their emotional responses to external constraints, and use career decision‐making strategies that seek an optimal balance of internal and external influences. 相似文献

This paper describes the process of attempting to teach the principles and effective utilization of family therapy to the indigenous staff of two mental health institutions. Both interventions are conceptualized as entrees into entrenched organizational systems requiring shifts in power alignments, clarification of self and group goals, articulation of needs, reallocation of resources, and attention to group process in order to succeed. One case, where such issues were overlooked and neglected, resulted in failure in which apparently little learning of family therapy occurred. The second, where these issues were anticipated, addressed and resolved, resulted in successful learning of family therapy, implementation of therapy programs and lasting change in the organizational climate to support those programs. The teacher of family therapy, by functioning as an organizational consultant, can help create the kind of working conditions which are best suited to effectively treating families. 相似文献

This study compares the retirement plans and preferences of a recent sample of 3,500 men and women of pre-retirement age- 50 to 64. The data suggest that a minority of older workers expect to retire earlier than they really want to, and that many would delay retirement if they faced different terms and conditions of employment. Although most older Americans cannot or do not want to work, many do, and they represent a significant underutilized labor market resource. 相似文献

In view of constant changes in today's world, it is imperative that social work education embrace a global perspective. Therefore, educators must continue to pay attention to, and adopt methods of, social interventions needed to address changing world circumstances. This paper will present a rationale for the study abroad experience and for the use of social networking to enhance the experience. Shared are points to consider when preparing and educating social work students for a global perspective in social work practice. Participant partners were Fayetteville State University, the University of Dar Es Salaam, and the Institute of Social Work. 相似文献

Nonprofit agencies are struggling to meet new funder demands in outcome evaluation. This study is the first of its kind to examine factors that contribute to agency progress in this area. Path analysis is used to examine chains of influence among five predictors of success as well as three control variables. Study findings indicate that agency culture, technology, management support, and involvement are key predictors of quality. Nonprofit managers who want to succeed in the new era of accountability should consider the potential impact of these factors on the quality of outcome evaluation plans in their agencies. 相似文献

Faculty in both class and field who are teaching students in these rapidly changing times need the opportunity to continue to enhance their learning on the job. Beyond the advancing knowledge in their own content area, faculty need to be aware of new developments in the field, content on emerging theories in social and behavioral sciences, and refinements in methods of teaching in professional education. This paper explores the need for new and renewed knowledge and various modalities for faculty development based on the experience of the faculty of one school. 相似文献

ABSTRACT Two Iowa psychologists have written a guide to parenting plans for legal professionals, published by the American Bar Association's Family Law Section. By concentrating only on residential schedules for low-conflict families, the authors of Creating Effective Parenting Plans give family lawyers a helpful primer on child development, but fall short of providing the comprehensive treatment of parenting plans that their audience needs most. Reliance on the primary parent paradigm, failure to address any aspect of parenting plans other than the residential schedule, and exclusion of complex issues limit the value of this guide. 相似文献

In this paper I shall use Winnicott’s concept of potential space to discuss the impasses, which arises when failures occur
in the development of group potential space. Because clinical social work is a service usually provided by public bodies with
limited economic resources, unstable social and political realities are driving many social workers to search for methods
of responding to the needs of many without compromising the quality of the service provided. This requires the acquisition
of increasing knowledge in the field of group therapy, in order to help our clients, who often suffer from disabling conditions,
to become functioning community members. The paper reviews Winnicott’s concept of potential space and Ogden’s formulation
of the psychopathology of potential space, and describes various manifestations of impasses in group work and group development.
Three clinical examples describing therapeutic groups led by clinicians in various public frameworks, are used to illustrate
three different forms of group collapse following a failure in the formation of potential space. A fourth type of collapse
is also discussed.
