This book was released on 2006 with total page 4 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This policy brief examines who is taking care of preschoolers of employed mothers in rural America. While most rural families choose home-based child care (such as relatives or informal nonrelated care providers), formal care (such as in day care centers) has positive benefits to a child's development. The brief recommends that programs are needed that either make formal care more affordable and accessible in rural communities, or that train home-based care providers to provide quality care. (Contains 2 figures, 1 table, and 11 endnotes.).

Book excerpt: Economic, social, and health indicators show that as many as one-quarter of rural children face problems usually attributed only to inner cities. Rural children are poorer than other American children and are less likely to have access to health insurance, health services, child care, government aid, or adequate housing. This book provides abundant statistical data (in text and tables) on various aspects of poverty in rural America as it affects children. It contains the following chapters: (1) Rural Children and Families: Who They Are; (2) The Rural Economic Landscape; (3) Child Poverty in Rural America; (4) Public Cash and Food Assistance for the Rural Poor; (5) the Health of Rural Children; (6) Rural Child Care and Early Childhood Education; (7) Rural Education; and (8) Rural Housing. Each chapter highlights problems faced in rural areas and makes frequent comparisons with urban data. The chapter on education discusses higher costs and limited curricula of rural schools, teacher experience and turnover, achievement scores, dropouts, youth outmigration, educational attainment, and college enrollment. Most chapters contain specific suggestions for national, state, and local governments and private entities to improve the plight of rural children. Sidebars highlight successful programs benefitting poor rural children. The appendix contains 13 additional tables that provide key state facts about children and the issues covered. (KS)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Changes in welfare laws have lead to a growing number of mothers returning to the workforce, creating a growing need for stable non-maternal child care arrangements for young children. Finding and maintaining stable child care arrangements can be especially problematic for low-income women living in rural areas of the country. Accessibility and availability may be especially limited to these families due to factors such as irregular work schedules and financial constraints. The goal of the present study was to better understand what factors contribute to mothers' decisions to change their child care arrangements. Data from a national research endeavor called Rural Families Speak (N = 474) were utilized. The present study (N = 249) focuses on a subsample of those women. Inclusion required women to have at least one child 5 years old or younger. Data were collected from families with an income at or below 200% of the poverty line and who were living in rural counties with population centers of less than 20,000. Results indicated that the most utilized type of care was informal care (40.7%). More stability than was hypothesized was found with 67% of families who reported no change in child care arrangements. Most mothers (86.4%) changed child care arrangements because of some precipitating event. Of the 81 cases experiencing change, 45.7% indicated that the change in their child care arrangements was related to their employment. Three reasons given for changes in care were work related; the mother got a job or began attending school (23.5%), the mother stopped working or attending school (14.8%), or a change in the mother's work schedule (5%). Interview transcripts revealed seven non-work related categories of responses when considering what specifically motivated mothers to change child care arrangements including; the person who was currently providing child care became unavailable or unwilling to continue, financial considerations, and moving from the area. In light of these findings, current policies were discussed and changes were suggested that may encourage more stable child care for young children.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A century ago, most Americans had ties to the land. Now only one in fifty is engaged in farming and little more than a fourth live in rural communities. Though not new, this exodus from the land represents one of the great social movements of our age and is also symptomatic of an unparalleled transformation of our society. In Children of the Land, the authors ask whether traditional observations about farm families—strong intergenerational ties, productive roles for youth in work and social leadership, dedicated parents and a network of positive engagement in church, school, and community life—apply to three hundred Iowa children who have grown up with some tie to the land. The answer, as this study shows, is a resounding yes. In spite of the hardships they faced during the agricultural crisis of the 1980s, these children, whose lives we follow from the seventh grade to after high school graduation, proved to be remarkably successful, both academically and socially. A moving testament to the distinctly positive lifestyle of Iowa families with connections to the land, this uplifting book also suggests important routes to success for youths in other high risk settings.

This book was released on 2020-03-27 with total page 525 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rural poverty encompasses a distinctive deprivation in quality of life related to a lack of educational support and resources as well as unique issues related to geographical, cultural, community, and social isolation. While there have been many studies and accommodations made for the impoverished in urban environments, those impoverished in rural settings have been largely overlooked and passed over by current policy. The Handbook of Research on Leadership and Advocacy for Children and Families in Rural Poverty is an essential scholarly publication that creates awareness and promotes action for the advocacy of children and families in rural poverty and recommends interdisciplinary approaches to support the cognitive, social, and emotional needs of children and families in poverty. Featuring a wide range of topics such as mental health, foster care, and public policy, this book is ideal for academicians, counselors, social workers, mental health professionals, early childhood specialists, school psychologists, administrators, policymakers, researchers, and students.

This book was released on 2018-02-23 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Maternity and Child Care in Selected Rural Areas of Mississippi Sources of information. - General information was secured from the county health officer, the county superintendent of schools, the county agricultural agent, the home demonstration agent, from physicians, and from many other responsible persons in the county. But in this, as in all similar surveys made by the Children's Bureau, the information most pertinent to child and maternity care was secured through personal interviews with individual mothers by the woman agents of the bureau. Effort was made to secure interviews with the mother of every baby born in the area studied between April 1, 1916, and April 1, 1918. Information was obtained in regard to 685 babies (299 white and 386 colored) born to 675 mothers (295 white and 380 colored). In a few cases in which it was impossible to see either the mother or the father, information was secured from relatives and others in a position to know the facts sought. The local registrars for births and deaths helped in finding all the babies within the scope of the survey, and death certificates for all babies whose deaths. Had been registered were secured at the beginning of the work. Since birth registration was incomplete, a house-to-house canvass was made of the county.
