Transcript: In 2009, nearly 55,000 children and youth were victims of a sexual offence or physical assault. About 3 in 10 of these incidents were perpetrated by a family member. (Statistics Canada, 2011) Neglect is the most common reason for an investigation, followed by physical abuse, emotional maltreatment and sexual abuse. Girls and boys are equally likely to be abused, but boys are more likely to be physically abused and girls sexually abused. Where there is spousal violence, there is also child abuse in 30% to 60% of cases. Exposure to family violence is the most common form of emotional maltreatment of children. Children who witness family violence suffer the same consequences as those who are directly abused. A child who witnesses spousal violence is experiencing a form of child abuse. In 6 out of 10 cases of physical and sexual abuse, the victims have considerable problems with behaviour, negative peer involvement, depression, anxiety, violence to others, developmental delays, irregular school attendance, and inappropriate sexual behaviour.(Royal Canadian Mounted Police) domestic violence can cause damage emotionally, physically and developmentally. put at risk of developing severe anxiety and depression. at risk of developing behavioral and cognitive problems FAMILY SERVICES OF GREATER VANCOUVER: ABUSE PREVENTION AND TRAUMA TREATMENT Our Mission: “ We are a community based not-for-profit organization dedicated to strengthening people, families, and communities.

VS Children living in Poverty (Hocking, 2013) Children in lone families are more than three times likely to be living in poverty than their counterparts in couple families, with a poverty rate of 40.6% compared to 12.5%. 51.5% of those receiving Parenting Payment were living below the poverty lines. Many could not afford up-to-date school books and clothes, or leisure activity for their children. Parenting Payment does little to provide financial assistance for its recipients. The program did not take into account of the barriers faced by these families such as the lack of job skills, health reasons, time needed to care for a young child, etc Newstart allowance affected 80,000 lone parents Introduced in 1998 2 categories: Parenting Payment Single and Parenting Payment Partnered A single parent with one child can receive up to $258 per week Recipients whose oldest child is 6 years old or older must agree to mutual obligation Parenting Payment = $176.60 per fortnight Newstart allowance = $62 per fortnight Adequacy of Parenting Payment Application to children?

States that individuals have choices and make choices. Can we apply this to children? Does a child choose to be born into poverty? Who is responsible for the child? (Saunders 2005) REFERENCE LIST: (ACOSS, 2016) (Dockery & Stromback, 2004) Children’s social security benefits mainly target the cost it takes for parents to raise a child. For example, Child Care Benefits, Youth Allowance, etc. Most are income-tested and subjected to a range of eligibility requirements. Most family receive Parenting Payment and Family Tax Benefit: aiming to encourage workforce participation STRUCTURAL Considers the structural state of society and government, including welfare systems, policy and equality within our society. Can the lack of the above, be considered a cause for childhood poverty? Is it society's responsibility for the wellbing of children?

By: Benicia Lie - Social Work Professional Journals are research journals concerned with education in social work and social welfare. Its purpose is to make aware of trends, and problems relevant to social work education. Process Notes Professional Journals - Emphasis: Without the skills to format and argue a particular point of view, the researcher would lose credibility and their article would remain unpublished. - She is the director of Social Work at Pepperdine University. - She also created the Social Work Minor. - She has a MSSW Clinical Specialty from the University of Tennesee. - Link: https://seaver.pepperdine.edu/academics/faculty/?faculty=emily_scott-lowe - Their main jobs are to: a) deal with adults with mental health problems or drug addiction and b) help children who are struggling emotionally or children who are seriously ill at foster care Social Work Newspaper - Process Notes are confidential (narrative) notes that a social worker writes about a person's life. - These process notes are then sent to the appropriate agency where the agency will give funding to the shelter to take care of this person. - Emphasis: If process notes aren't taken correctly, the shelter won't receive the funds from the agency to support this person in need. For Example: Date 2/4/20 Duration: 60 minutes Location: coffee shop Client: George Washington Met with George to learn more about his work interests, work history and goals for employment. George has a history of working in landscaping, but is interested in some type of work that would be year round. He has also done some janitorial work, but reports that it was just “ok”. George would be interested in learning more about other kinds of jobs. (Please see the vocational profile for more details.) George is close to his family, especially his mother, and would like to have her involved in his employment plan. Writer will attempt to schedule an appointment with George and his mother next week. Sarah Swanson Link: http://www.dartmouth.edu/~charky1/page40/page51/page61/files/progress_notes.pdf GOAL! - A social worker is someone employed to provide social services (especially to the disadvantaged) Emphasis on Writing for Newspaper Dr. Scott-Lowe Influence on Process Notes Research with families involved with the child welfare system across generations has largely focused on the intergenerational transmission of maltreatment. However, their feelings about being involved with child welfare as parents are largely unknown. The current study compares risk factors among first and second generation child welfare-involved mothers across a U.S. state. A random sample of mothers (n = 336) with children younger than age five in the child welfare system were interviewed. Forty-two percent of mothers reported their own childhood history of child welfare involvement. Findings showed that second generation mothers have less education, more depression and anxiety, and higher rates of intimate partner violence (IPV). Second generation mothers rated four dimensions of engagement in child welfare services lower than first generation mothers. This decreased engagement was predicted by their mental health problems, IPV, and whether they spent time in foster care as a child. Implications for practice are discussed. Social Working Rhetorical Modes Los Angeles County officials proposed a budget Monday that would pump money into reforming major problem areas, including the jails and foster care system, while expanding county medical staffs to manage the transition to federal healthcare reform. As part of a $26-billion spending plan that builds on post-recession economic improvements, Chief Executive William T Fujioka called for adding more than 1,300 positions to county government, including nurses, social workers and staff for the newly created Sheriff's Department inspector general. The county has a workforce of more than 100,000, making it by far the largest employer in the region. For a second consecutive year, officials project that revenue will keep pace with spending after years of deficits during the economic downturn, when the county was forced to dip into reserves.
