Full textRecent decades have seen historic increases in maternal employment. The developmental implications of work-family conflict, however, remain poorly understood. Children's (n= 1,364) social-emotional problems through early childhood and pre-adolescence were examined as a function of mother's work-family conflict using longitudinal data from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development Study of Early Child Care and Youth Development (NICHD SECCYD). Hierarchical linear modeling techniques were utilized to examine the lagged and contemporaneous associations between work-family conflict and children's social-emotional outcomes (i.e., internalizing and externalizing problems). Furthermore, family stress processes--maternal depression and maternal sensitivity--were examined as mediators of the associations between work-family conflict and social-emotional outcomes. Developmental timing of work-family conflict (i.e., child age) was also examined as a moderator of associations between conflict and social-emotional growth. Results indicated that within-family changes in work-family conflict predicted later within-child changes in children's internalizing problems in lagged models. With regard to between-family differences, average work-family conflict was associated with both average levels of internalizing and externalizing problems. Maternal depression and maternal sensitivity mediated the association between work-family conflict and children's externalizing problems between-families; maternal depression mediated the association between work-family conflict and children's internalizing problems between-families. There was little evidence to suggest, however, that the effects of work-family conflict differed as a function of developmental timing. Results from this research suggest that the developmental consequences of work-family conflict may not be immediate, but rather accrue over time. Moreover, results indicate that the effects of work-family conflict are both direct and indirect via family stress processes. These findings are further discussed regarding their implications for developmental research, policy and practice

Salas, Marisol Luevanos. "Family Dependency Drug Court Program| Staff Perspectives." Thesis, California State University, Long Beach, 2018. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=10785124.
Full textThe purpose of this qualitative study was to gain a deeper understanding of a Family Treatment Drug Court (FTDC) Program in a Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS) office by exploring staff experiences. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 12 staff who were currently working or had previously worked in the program.
Sobriety, reunification and parental insight were identified as the main goals of the FTDC program. Informal hearings, ongoing communication and collaboration were fundamental strategies utilized by the FTDC staff to promote desired outcomes. Reunification, recidivism, program completion and client changes were positive outcomes highlighted by the participants.
The research found elements of the FTDC program that can be adopted as best practices, as well as areas of improvement to better support families dealing with substance use issues in child welfare. Future legislation should consider adequately funding additional FTDC programs to make them more widely available.

Full textThe purpose of this thesis project was to locate funding and write a grant proposal to provide a weekend-long social support/parent education retreat to parents and families of children with co-occurring conditions associated with Autism Spectrum Disorder. The goal of this parent-family retreat is to reduce perceived parental stress levels, which will benefit the well-being of all members within a family unit and improve parent self-efficacy. An extensive literature review was performed to investigate the best way to provide parents with a deeper understanding of co-occurring disorders and the importance of taking a holistic approach to supporting their child and/or children. Additionally, foundations were researched for possible funding opportunities and the W.M. Keck Foundation was selected as the best potential funding source. A grant proposal narrative was then written for REACH, a non-profit in Santa Fe Springs, California. The actual submission and/or funding of this grant were not a requirement for the completion of this project.

Full textThe purpose of the project was to locate a potential funding source and write a grant to design a family-based treatment program for at-risk and economically disadvantaged adolescents and their families who face substance use problems. A search was conducted to locate an appropriate funder for psychoeducation and family-based treatment services for adolescents and their families in the South Bay area in Los Angeles County. A literature review was performed to investigate the effective ways to assist and psychoeducate adolescents and their families on risk factors and protective factors associated with substance use. In addition, previous literature was reviewed to explore existing interventions that treat adolescent substance dependence.
If funded, the proposed program would provide adolescents and their families psychoeducation to decrease or ameliorate their substance use to prevent potential serious problems and develop coping skills needed to manage daily life challenges. Equally important, it is hoped that parents of these adolescents would also gain skills to support their children's efforts to avoid future substance use. The actual submission and/or funding of this grant was not a requirement for the successful completion of the project.

Full textThe Resource Family Approval (RFA) program replaces the current pathways for approving, certifying, or licensing relatives and foster families in California and creates a single process for assessing and approving caregivers for children, youth, and non-minor dependents under the supervision of child welfare or probation systems. Five counties comprise the first cohort of RFA early implementers, three of which participated in this research: San Francisco, San Luis Obispo, and Santa Clara. The purpose of the study was to examine the RFA program through qualitative interviews with county representatives to identify themes and lay a foundation for future research. All three participants reported fewer complaints against resource families and improved placement stability, preliminary indicators that RFA is achieving improvements in child safety, permanence, and well-being. This research provides qualitative support for the RFA program’s impact on child welfare outcomes as well as guidance to counties planning for statewide implementation.
Robertson, Monica. "Family resilience in response to extrafamilial child sexual abuse." Master's thesis, University of Cape Town, 2005. http://hdl.handle.net/11427/3813.
Full textThis qualitative study explores family resilience in response to extrafamilial child sexual abuse. Family resilience refers to the adaptive pathway along which a family journeys in response to a significant stressor. The theory on family resilience proposes that protective family factors and processes serve to mediate the impact of trauma on a family. A gap was found in the literature in the area of family resilience relating to child sexual abuse and theoretical research conducted as part of this study aims to contribute to this area. The research study adopts a strengths perspective which views families as challenged rather than dysfunctional.

Full textCancer is a growing health problem in the United States with family caregivers serving as the primary care providers of cancer patients. Research shows that family caregivers of adult cancer patients tend to experience adverse mental health effects because of their caregiving role. The proposed program, entitled the Healthy Caregiver will provide services in English and Spanish, offering group therapy support and information referrals to family caregivers of adult cancer patients. Using a cognitive behavioral therapy approach, the overarching goal of the program will be to decrease symptoms of depression and anxiety associated with the burden of caregiving. The proposed program will be hosted at St. Francis Medical Center in Lynwood, California. Funding options were explored and the Annenberg Foundation was identified as the best potential funder for this project. The actual submission and/or funding of this grant proposal were not requirements for the successful completion of this project.
