This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this phenomenological study is to understand the attitudes and perceptions of Hispanics living in Tampa Bay, Florida regarding foster parent roles. The theory guiding this study is the researcher’s axiological philosophical assumption. The philosophical assumption is applied within the social constructivist interpretive framework. The researcher seeks to understand the study participants' world and develop meaning to their lived experiences, as discussed during the interviews. The participants’ views are the primary source of reliance for the research (Creswell & Poth, 2018). The researcher’s position in this study is relative to their social position, personal, political, and professional beliefs when utilizing the axiological philosophical assumption (Creswell & Poth, 2018). This study explored why Hispanics may or may not choose to become foster parents or caregivers to children in foster care. Data were collected through guided interviews and field notes including notes regarding observable body language or facial expression. The researcher conducted data analysis utilizing the Interpretative Phenomenological Approach to interpret the data drawn from participant interviews. Study results sought to understand the lived experiences of Hispanics in the United States that contribute to their perceptions about foster parent and caregiver roles for foster children.

Book Synopsis Contributing Factors to Successful Emancipated Foster Youth by : Rita A. Williams-Washington
Download or read book Contributing Factors to Successful Emancipated Foster Youth written by Rita A. Williams-Washington and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When children in foster care turn 18, they are, for the most part, on their own. They are "called emancipated"; they are legally adults free from the foster care system. But many leave foster care with no job or income, few educational prospects and little emotional support or community connections. There is a lack of knowledge regarding the effectiveness of services. Another challenge to improving policy and practice directed towards foster youth transitions to adulthood is the poor knowledge base supporting existing interventions. The vast majority of the existing research has relied upon caseworker ratings, self-reporting by foster parents, and identity information related to placement disruptions and placement success. Researchers must take into account the important role that foster youth perception plays in determining the child's goal and success or failure of placement. From an Interpretive Perspective this research focused on the concept of resiliency. This study evaluated the perceptions of successful independent young adults regarding their life experience after foster care focused on their personal strengths; resiliency.

Book excerpt: Abstract: The purpose of this study was to explore the perceived challenges and successes that emancipated foster youth encounter after they age out of the child welfare system. A total of 12 emancipated foster youth participated in this qualitative study. The results showed that housing was the biggest challenge along with obtaining employment and meeting their basic needs. Some former foster youth identified their biggest success as obtaining housing after emancipating from foster care, while other former foster youth reported their successes as re-connecting with family, finishing high school or pursuing college, and/or getting off illegal drugs. In addition, half of respondents reported not having any services post emancipation while others reported receiving public assistance.
