This document discusses the need to integrate elder abuse and conjugal violence approaches to help older women experiencing domestic violence. It notes that while older and younger abused women share some experiences, older women have distinct needs due to factors like reduced social networks and health issues. Currently, the elder abuse approach focuses on caregiving issues and ignores the gendered nature of domestic violence. The conjugal violence approach also does not fully address the needs of older women. An integrated approach is needed that adapts the feminist model to meet the specific needs of older women experiencing domestic violence in their relationships.

Domestic violence & older women study
This presentation to an elder abuse conference presents the preliminary findings of a study on older women experiencing domestic violence.
Women in CJ System
The document discusses issues facing women in the US criminal justice system. It notes that being a female prisoner can be terrifying due to high rates of sexual abuse from staff and other prisoners. It also presents demographics from a survey of 151 female clients showing high rates of substance abuse, domestic violence, sexual trauma, and mental health issues. The document argues that understanding gender differences and implementing gender-responsive policies that address trauma and mental health are needed to improve outcomes for women in the criminal justice system.
Social Construction of Family Violence
A presentation to a health and social services agency about the social construction of family violence
Final slides sexualassault7740compatibleversion (1)
This work is important because it provides an in-depth analysis of the increasingly visual social problem of Sexual Assault (SA) within the intertwined social networks that college students study, work, and live. I was on a team comprised of University of Missouri females who observed victimization and political barriers for student survivors directly—both in our student social circles, and in the intimate partner violence prevention work we practiced on and off campus. We wanted to examine and report our understandings as female student researchers, using the social work framework for assessment at the level of institution and community. In the years surrounding this presentation, the enforcement of Title IX continues to be increasingly mandated alongside national media coverage of high profile cases of sexual assault in the world of professional and college sports. Our own athletic department at MU has since developed a student-athlete character development program as a component of prevention.
The concept of Elder Abuse
This document discusses elder abuse and provides definitions and context around the issue. It summarizes the findings of a research project called "Missing Voices" which involved focus groups with older people in several countries. The focus groups found that elder abuse takes several forms including neglect, disrespect, and financial abuse. Key factors that make older people vulnerable to abuse are gender and socioeconomic status. The document concludes with recommendations to address elder abuse such as developing education and screening tools, disseminating research, and improving recognition of the issue through campaigns like World Elder Abuse Awareness Day.
Social pathology ppt0
Social pathology is the study of social problems as diseased conditions of social organization. It views undesirable social conditions as "sick" and aims to identify the causes of social diseases and find ways to remove them. The social pathology perspective is rooted in the organic analogy of viewing society as an organism. If one part is dysfunctional, it impacts the whole. Early sociologists who studied social pathology focused on identifying immoral individuals as the cause of problems. More recent views examine broader societal forces like technology and population that influence social problems. Solutions suggested include education to promote moral values.
Cure Violence - Frank Perez
This document discusses treating violence as a public health issue and contagious disease. It summarizes the Cure Violence approach, which aims to interrupt transmission of violence through detecting and interrupting conflicts, treating those at highest risk, and changing group and community norms. The approach identifies violence hot spots and highest risk individuals. It employs "credible messengers" from communities to de-escalate conflicts and change social norms. Evaluations found the Cure Violence model reduced shootings and killings in cities like Chicago, Baltimore, and New York City.

Grant Work
The document is a grant proposal requesting $9,000 to fund a program aimed at reducing domestic abuse of women in Horry County, South Carolina. It provides background on the prevalence and types of domestic violence. The program will use the Transtheoretical Model of behavior change over 6-week cycles to educate women and help them recognize abuse and end violent relationships. Objectives include having women identify abusive behaviors, expand their support systems, and make commitments to change. The goal is to reduce abused women in the county by 20% by May 2010.

Domestic violence
This document summarizes domestic violence, including what it is, who the abusers and victims are, when and where it occurs, why it happens, and how responses to domestic violence have evolved over time. It defines domestic violence as abuse between intimate partners or family members, noting that abusers can appear friendly in public but abuse behind closed doors. The document traces how feminist movements have helped make domestic violence a criminal justice issue and discusses the roles of medical professionals, nurses, and psychologists in responding to domestic violence.
Institutions To Community
The document discusses moving children from institutions into community life. It notes that children in institutions have profoundly negative health impacts, including a life expectancy of only 30 years and high rates of abuse, suicide, and incarceration. Currently, most of Russia's child welfare funds are spent on institutions. However, the future policy will be for children to live with families in the community instead of institutions. The document outlines a plan to transition children from institutions into family and community settings from prenatal to age 16. It also discusses the interventions and challenges involved in this transition.
Understanding Violence
This document discusses violence and its effects. It defines violence as acts intended to hurt people, and lists different forms like physical, verbal, emotional, sexual, and economic abuse. It notes that violence can be perpetrated by individuals, groups, states, or the environment. The effects of violence are psychological/emotional like depression or fear, physical like injury, and social like distorted values. The document also discusses how violence is often intergenerationally transmitted as children who witness abuse learn that it is a normal way to resolve conflicts. It concludes that breaking this cycle requires practicing non-violent child discipline.
Preventing SV, Berlin2016
The document discusses strategies for preventing sexual violence (SV) on college campuses based on a public health approach. It proposes implementing a multi-level SV prevention strategy called STOP SV across individual, relationship, community and societal levels. This would include bystander intervention programs, social norms campaigns, and creating protective environments through policies. The target population is college students, with challenges including the high-risk environment. Implementation requires involvement from public health, education and other sectors. Outcomes would be measured through evaluations of SV incidence rates and knowledge gains.

Elder financial exploitation gov conf presentation
The document discusses elder financial exploitation, including its prevalence, risk factors, warning signs, and strategies for prevention and intervention. It notes that financial abuse affects around 5% of older adults annually and is underreported. Risk factors include age over 80, gender (female), living alone, cognitive impairment, and social isolation. Warning signs include anxiety over finances and sudden changes to spending patterns or legal documents. Prevention strategies involve education, organization, awareness of scams, and monitoring for signs of exploitation. Intervention includes involvement of adult protective services, law enforcement, banks, and medical and social work communities. The goal is to minimize harm through rehabilitation and addressing the root causes of abuse.

Homeless
The document discusses various factors that can contribute to homelessness such as a lack of affordable housing, poverty, unemployment, mental or physical illness, substance abuse issues, and more. It also examines the impacts of homelessness on individuals and families, including higher rates of medical problems, shorter lifespans, and challenges for homeless children in school. Potential solutions mentioned include increasing access to healthcare, housing programs, education initiatives, and charitable services for those experiencing homelessness.
HCS103 Topic 11
This document discusses social work practice in the field of crime and corrections. It addresses issues at the micro, meso, and macro levels that offenders may face. It explores how culture and location influence what behaviors are considered criminal and how crime statistics have limitations. Common offender characteristics are outlined. The goals of criminal justice systems around punishment, rehabilitation and community safety are discussed. The roles of social workers in primary, secondary and tertiary intervention models are presented along with dilemmas in balancing social control and care.
Gender focus
This document discusses the importance of integrating a gender perspective into humanitarian assistance and development work. It argues that understanding gender differences is essential for accurately analyzing situations, ensuring all needs are addressed, and designing effective programs. A gender perspective highlights the different security concerns, work responsibilities, and capacities of women, men, girls and boys. It also draws attention to power dynamics and opportunities to promote equitable participation. Mainstreaming gender involves changing how contexts are analyzed rather than just adding a brief section on women. Providing assistance should not screen people but should be informed by their differing vulnerabilities and priorities as male or female in that situation.

Battered husband syndrome has not been investigated in an Arab context, despite evidence of a significant increase in violence against men by women. This study investigated male victims’ experiences of female-perpetrated domestic abuse in Jordan using a qualitative exploratory descriptive approach. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews with 33 married men from Amman and analyzed using interpretative phenomenological analysis. Five themes were identified: 1. causes of domestic abuse against men; 2. types of domestic abuse against men; 3. effects of domestic abuse against men; 4. men’s perception of reducing or stopping abuse by their wives; and 5. abusive wives’ characteristics. Participants experienced psychological, emotional and verbal abuse, coercive control, emotional neglect, and physical violence with varying degrees of severity, which affected both them and their families. Abusive wives used numerous tactics, including sex, children, isolation, and money to enable abuse. Moreover, clan and traditional thinking, societal structures, and norms led participants to divorce, stay in an abusive relationship, or use violence against their wives. The leading causes of abuse against the husband were wives’ neglecting the house, children, appearance, and personal hygiene; wasting money; wives’ family interfering in the couple’s private marital affairs; the wife’s betrayal; and traditional thinking. New perspectives toward domestic abuse in Jordan need to be developed to help us better understand the nature of abuse against men, provide resources and support for them, reduce the prevalence of domestic abuse, and protect Jordanian families.

This document provides an overview of gender and disaster risk reduction. It begins with definitions of key terms like gender mainstreaming and gender analysis. It then presents case studies on the different impacts of disasters on women and men in Grenada, St. Lucia, and St. Kitts and Nevis. The document discusses how gender analysis is important for understanding social inequalities and power differentials between women and men. It also explores how gender should be considered in areas like vulnerability, response, and management in disaster and environmental contexts.
HCS103 Topic 10
Child abuse and neglect occurs when a child is harmed or likely to be harmed by a parent, caregiver, or person responsible for their care. It refers to situations where a child needs protection due to an inability or unwillingness of caregivers to protect them from abuse. Decision-making in child protection involves multi-disciplinary and multi-agency collaboration, with risk assessments weighing technical and moral factors. Most Australian states require certain professionals and members of the public to report suspected abuse via mandatory reporting systems. However, reports often outstrip available resources to adequately respond to families in need. Early intervention and population-level, strengths-based approaches aim to support families and prevent abuse by addressing underlying socio-economic stresses.
Home of One’s Own: Women’s Property Rights and HIV/AIDS
This document discusses structural interventions to address HIV/AIDS, specifically how strengthening women's property rights can help reduce HIV transmission. It notes that a lack of secure property rights for women can lead to homelessness, food insecurity, and exchanging sex for goods, fueling the spread of HIV. Ensuring women's legal right to own and inherit property could help empower them economically and give them more autonomy over their sexual relationships. However, measuring the impact of such interventions on HIV outcomes faces challenges due to social and cultural factors surrounding land ownership.

This document summarizes a study that explored the experiences of family caregivers for people living with HIV/AIDS in Kerala, India and Scotland. The study found that caregivers in both contexts experienced significant burdens. Caregivers in Kerala faced greater challenges of poverty, stigma, discrimination, and lack of healthcare support. Caregivers in Scotland faced stress, limited support, difficulties maintaining employment, and lack of recognition of their needs. The study developed a theoretical model of family caregiving in HIV/AIDS based on themes of struggle, commitment, and resilience expressed by caregivers.

Domestic Violence Essay
This document discusses intimate partner violence against women. It notes that many women initially believe the abuse is their fault, when in reality the abuser is at fault. The document aims to help shift women's perspectives on victimization by empowering them to speak out, leave abusive situations, and prevent future abuse. Intimate partner violence is a serious issue that affects millions of women worldwide regardless of demographic factors. Abuse can be physical, sexual, psychological and can damage women's health. Risk factors include gender inequality, lack of control over social factors, and adherence to traditional gender roles. The cycle of violence used by abusers aims to maintain control over women through stages including violence, remorse, promises of change, victim blaming, and

Feminist therapy developed as a response to traditional therapy's focus on the perspectives of white men and maintenance of the status quo. It emphasizes the role of social and cultural contexts, including gender socialization and power dynamics, in shaping individuals' experiences and problems. Feminist therapy aims to empower clients by helping them understand how societal expectations have influenced them and by encouraging social action to challenge oppression. Therapists adopt egalitarian relationships and validate women's relational qualities and perspectives in order to foster empowerment and social change.

Feminism: An Overview And the Colonization of Diversity
Feminism is a collection of movements and ideologies that share a common stated aim: to define, establish, and defend equal political, economic, cultural, and social rights of women rights. This includes seeking to establish equal opportunities for women in education and employment. A feminist generally self-defines as advocating for or supporting the rights and equality of women. Feminist theory which emerged from feminist movements aims to understand the nature of gender inequality by examining women's social roles and lived experience; it has developed theories in a variety of disciplines in order to respond to issues such as the social construction of sex and gender. Some forms of feminism have been criticized for taking into account only white, middle-class, educated perspectives. This led to the creation of ethnically specific or multiculturalist forms of feminism.

This document provides information about understanding and supporting women who experience violence. It aims to educate professionals who may encounter abused women through their work. The document defines different types of abuse women face, discusses why the focus is on violence against women, and explains that abuse is about maintaining power and control, not other factors like mental illness or anger issues. Abusers often believe in their own superiority over women and that they deserve to have their needs met. Societal attitudes can influence abusive behaviors as well. Multi-sector collaboration is important to ensure survivors can access comprehensive support services.

It notes that sex is biologically determined while gender is socially constructed and refers to the roles, behaviors and expectations placed upon men and women in a given society. Gender-based violence refers to violence that occurs due to unequal power relations between genders. Various types of violence against women are outlined, as well as the physical, psychological and reproductive consequences. Challenging gender-based violence requires changing social norms, increasing support services, and advocating for protective legislation.

This document discusses gender-based violence and aims to differentiate between sex and gender. It begins by defining key terms like gender-based violence, sexual identity, and intimacy. It then discusses the prevalence of violence against women globally and some common myths about rape. The document also identifies implicit and explicit factors in schools that can lead to gender-based violence, such as gender stereotyping, lack of gender-fair policies and practices, and teacher tolerance of male domination. It concludes by emphasizing the need to address the root cultural causes of gender inequity and promote respectful relationships from a young age.
Mader Review Paper Power Point Psy492
The document discusses girls in the juvenile justice system. It notes that girls now make up 30% of juvenile arrests, up from 20% in 1980, often for status offenses. Their delinquent acts often stem from abuse, mental health issues, and troubled home lives. Diversion programs incorporating gender-responsive approaches could help divert girls' pathways. Such programs should address the developmental, psychological, and social characteristics of girls. Relocation and individual/group counseling could also help divert girls from the system.

Global Strategy Elder Abuse
The document summarizes key findings from a WHO-INPEA action research project on elder abuse. The project involved focus groups in 8 countries with older adults and healthcare professionals. Two main findings emerged: 1) older adults primarily blamed structural factors like inadequate social services for mistreatment, termed "societal abuse"; 2) experiences of disrespect, such as in healthcare and transportation, were viewed as abuse itself and a cause of other abuse. The implications challenge the micro-level view of elder abuse and identify the need to address broader social and policy issues to prevent abuse.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune Disease
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.
