Society plays a vital role in impacting mental health and substance abuse. Different groups are affected by various factors - children of parents with substance abuse issues often struggle in school and have behavioral problems, while men suffer more from alcoholism and substance abuse. Those with dual diagnosis of mental illness and substance abuse self-medicate to cope with their conditions, and illicit drug use can exacerbate mental health symptoms or mimic them. How society perceives and handles these issues through social stigmas, policies, and treatment options greatly influences how individuals are able to manage their mental health and/or substance abuse.

Increasing FP Utilization

Saba'atu Elizabeth

The study aimed to identify factors influencing family planning utilization in Bauchi State, Nigeria. 83% of women surveyed were between 20-39 years old and married with an average of 4 children. The most commonly used methods were hormonal (injectables and pills). Barriers to long acting reversible contraceptives and other modern methods included side effects, misconceptions, limited information, and socio-cultural factors. Community factors like the influence of religious and male community leaders also impacted utilization. Organizational barriers included insufficient provider training, contraceptive stock-outs, lack of protocols and supportive supervision. Addressing individual, community, and institutional factors is needed to improve family planning uptake in Bauchi State.

This document discusses gaps in strategic information on most-at-risk populations (MARPs) in Sri Lanka. There is a lack of population size estimates and mapping of MARPs at the district level. Data on MARPs is also inadequate for HIV surveillance and estimates. It is difficult to obtain probability samples for surveillance and studies of MARPs due to their mobile nature. There is also insufficient expertise for MARP studies given Sri Lanka's low-level HIV epidemic status.

The document discusses frameworks for planning and monitoring adolescent and youth sexual and reproductive health programs. It describes the WHO measurement framework which examines inputs, processes, outputs, outcomes and impact. It provides examples of indicators to measure coverage and quality of interventions, behaviors, and health outcomes. The document also discusses ensuring data is recorded and integrated across different sources to comprehensively measure and improve programs for vulnerable youth populations.

MEASURE Evaluation

This document summarizes a systematic review of gender-integrated programming that aims to reduce gender-based violence (GBV). The review identified 55 interventions globally, with 12 located in South Asia. Most interventions engaged men and boys and employed transformative strategies like challenging gender norms and empowering vulnerable groups. Transformative programs effectively changed attitudes around GBV while accommodating strategies mobilized communities against practices like female genital mutilation. The review recommends continued involvement of men and boys in GBV programs combined with empowerment strategies and structural opportunities to achieve health and gender outcomes.

Substance Abuse, Sexual Behaviors, HIV/STD/HIV

Texas Department of State Health Services

This document summarizes a study of substance abuse, sexual behaviors, HIV/STD/HCV testing, and prevention service utilization among injection drug users in Dallas, Texas from 2005-2006. The study used respondent-driven sampling to obtain prevalence estimates among 597 injection drug users. Key findings include: most participants had unprotected sex and used drugs or alcohol before sex, though few were tested recently for STDs; using substances before sex was linked to riskier behaviors but not prevention service use; and effective prevention strategies are still needed to promote safer behaviors.

This document summarizes the findings of a study on health practitioners' knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding child abuse and sexual abuse in Nepal. The study utilized interviews and focus group discussions with children, key community informants, and health practitioners across 12 districts. Key findings include: 1) health practitioners lack training on identifying and treating child abuse cases; 2) children and informants commonly identified various forms of abuse but many cases go unreported; and 3) health practitioners demonstrated limited clinical knowledge and reported few experiences with child abuse cases, suggesting more training is needed to properly address this issue.

Running Head: FINDINGS USED TO MAKE PUBLIC HEALTH PLANNING AND POLICY DECISIONS 5 Findings Used to Make Public Health Planning and Policy Decisions Unit 4 - HA560 March 28, 2016 There has been increased concern among policy makers, scientists and communities that health is greatly affected by a number of factors that occur in a person’s lifetime and in multi levels. Prevention is sententious to curb occurrence of any disease within the population, and it has to come first even if access to quality healthcare services is provided. To adequately promote health and prevent diseases, certain policies and factors need to be addressed mostly factors that are related to health behaviors. Social psychology is all about understanding individuals’ behavior specifically in a social setting. Basically, social psychology focuses on factors that influence people to behave in certain ways in presence of others. The two greatest contributors in the field of social psychology were Allport (1920) and Bandura (1963). To begin with, according to Allport; he argued that the interaction of individuals with others or the presence of social groups can encourage the development of certain behaviors (Kassin, 2014). This is what Allport referred to as social facilitation, in his research he identified that an audience will facilitate the performance of an actor in a well learnt and understood task; however the performance of the same actor will decrease in performance on difficult tasks which are newly learnt, and this is contributed by social inhibition. The second contributor in the field of social psychology is Bandura (1963), in his work he developed a notion that behavior in the social world could be possibly modeled, and this is what he referred to as social learning theory. He gave his explanation with three groups of children who were watching a video where in the video an adult showed aggressiveness towards a “bobo doll” and the adults who displayed such behavior were awarded by another adult or were just punished. Therefore Bandura found that children who saw the adult being rewarded were found to be more likely to imitate that adult’s behavior. Certain theories plays important roles in health assessment, and a theory is defined as a collection of concepts in specific area of concern or interest in the world that need explanations, intervening and prediction. Theories need to be backed up with evidence that tend to explain why things will happen in relation to current situations, and followed with some actions to turn situations in certain desirable ways. Health assessment can be defined as a plan of care that recognizes specific person’s health needs and how such needs will be addressed by healthcare system or any other health institutions (Jarvis, 2008). Generally, health assessment is the evaluation of health status through examination of physical and psychological concerns after looking at the health history of the victim assess ...

This internship aimed to train health educators in implementing SBIRT (Screening, Brief Intervention, and Referral to Treatment) to address substance abuse issues. The intern created presentations on SBIRT and motivational interviewing, and led role-playing activities to practice the skills. SBIRT screening tools were used to identify at-risk patients, who then received a brief intervention or referral to treatment. An evaluation found the training increased advocates' understanding of SBIRT and motivational interviewing techniques.

The document discusses newborn screening (NBS), which tests newborns for certain disorders and conditions that can compromise development if undetected. While NBS successfully lowers infant mortality, it has not addressed the increase in disabilities. The document advocates beginning NBS programs in India to detect conditions like congenital hypothyroidism and prevent associated morbidities and financial burdens. NBS programs require epidemiological data, ethical and economical consideration, and availability of screening tests, treatment, and intervention timelines. The document encourages starting regional NBS centers in India to prevent childhood disabilities and mortality from treatable metabolic diseases.

This document provides an overview of the HIV/AIDS epidemic and programmatic response in Uttar Pradesh, India. It finds that key vulnerability factors driving the epidemic include a large population, gender disparities, the presence of high-risk groups like migrants, female sex workers, and injecting drug users. HIV prevalence trends show a concentrated epidemic among high-risk groups but signs of spread to the general population. The government's response under NACP III aims to prevent new infections, increase access to care and treatment, build capacity, and strengthen strategic information systems through targeted interventions for high-risk groups and the general population. Key ongoing challenges include curbing the spread from high-risk to low-risk groups and further decentralizing

Adolescent Preventive Services Presentation

National Chlamydia Coalition

The document summarizes adolescent preventive services and visit patterns. It finds that currently recommended clinical preventive services (CPS) for adolescents often lack strong evidence of effectiveness. Delivery rates of CPS are low, even for services with good evidence like cervical cancer screening. Adolescents average 1.9 total medical visits per year but only 9% are for preventive care. Guidelines calling for one annual preventive visit are met less than 2% of the time. More evidence and attention to improving delivery systems are needed to better provide preventive services to adolescents.

Francesca Vescia (she/her)

This document provides an overview of evidence-based programs and practices for children and families. It defines evidence-based practices as programs that have been shown through rigorous experimental evaluations like randomized controlled trials to make a positive statistical difference in important outcomes. The document then lists several organizations and clearinghouses that identify and rate evidence-based programs. It provides links to each one so readers can search for programs that meet their needs. Finally, it notes some programs are no longer actively maintained and provides alternative resources.
