Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to determine the challenges and strengths bilingual social workers encounter in providing services to monolingual Spanish speaking clients. A qualitative exploratory approach, content analysis, was used in this research project. A non-probability snowball sampling method of 10 bilingual social workers whom serve monolingual Spanish speaking clients participated in this exploratory study. Three themes emerged: (1) linguistic barrier, (2) the lack of cultural competency; and (3) clients' personalism. Implications for social work practice and policy are discussed.

This book was released on 2023-09-19 with total page 537 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do we understand the tendency for Latinos to underutilize certain social services and what types of outreach and intervention strategies are beginning to remedy this longstanding problem? How are Latino psychosocial and health problems shaped by historical and current conditions of acculturation and adjustment, social stratification, ethnic/racial identity development, diversity within Latinos, and politics and social policy? And what are the best and most promising practices for addressing Latino psychosocial and health problems and how could they be improved? The book responds to the increasing need to understand Latino positionality in the U.S. in order to effectively serve Latinos in ways responsive to the cultural and social realities of diverse Latino populations. Author Kurt C. Organista responds to the needs of social and human service providers to be more effective in their increasing practice with Latino clients, as well as to professional mandates to teach multicultural theory and practice throughout the social sciences. Organista provides a comprehensive and up to date review and analysis of psychosocial and health problems over-affecting Latino populations in the United States, as well as their mitigation through evidence-based, culturally adapted, and community-based interventions, programs, and institutions. One of the first of its kind, this book integrates, critiques, and expands upon state of the art Latino-relevant social science theory, psychosocial and health research, practice intervention methods, and also applies a social justice lens to Latino-relevant social problems, including their political context, impacting Latino health and wellbeing.

Book excerpt: As globalization has exponentially increased social interactions across national lines, the need for bilingual and bicultural mental health professionals has logically followed. In this case study, we present exploratory phenomenological research conducted in Mexico in which we explored family therapy clients perspectives on their experiences in therapy with non-Mexican Spanish as a Second Language clinicians. We discuss how nuances of language enhanced or hindered the therapeutic process with native monolingual Spanish-speaking Mexicans. The first author conducted interviews focusing on clients perceptions regarding their therapeutic alliance, expectations, therapeutic outcome, and the influence of therapists language abilities. We found surprising benefits to language differences such as facilitating culturally rich exchanges and increasing collaborative activity in therapy. We also discovered disadvantages linked to reduced mutual understanding. In addition, through the process of exploration in this topic, we encountered methodological and philosophical challenges which we discuss in detail in this case study.

This book was released on 2000-01-28 with total page 618 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research Design for Social Work and the Human Services integrates a range of research techniques into a single epistemological framework and presents a balanced approach to the teaching of research methods in the "helping professions." Jeane W. Anastas begins with a discussion of the different philosophical perspectives within which social research occurs and continues with problem formulation, research design, and methodological issues influencing data collection, analysis, and dissemination. She presents both fixed (quantitative) and flexible (qualitative) methods of research, granting legitimacy, value, utility, and relevance to both styles of inquiry. Utilizing complete case studies to illustrate different methodological approaches, Research Design for Social Work and the Human Services integrates material on women and people of color, and draws attention to the ways racism, heterosexism, sexism, and classism affect the conceptualization and conduct of research. Anastas not only exposes these biases but actively addresses the experiences, needs, and concerns of clients of both genders and different races, ethnicities, sexual orientations, cultures, and classes.

Book excerpt: Abstract: The purpose of this project was to develop a project that focuses on providing mental health access to monolingual Spanish speaking adult Latinos. The goal of the project was to improve mental health access to this population. There is documented research that illustrates that Latinos continue to have low access to mental health services. An extensive review of literature was conducted to examine the reasons why Latinos have low access rates to mental health services. Mental health outreach will be provided in Spanish by promotoras in a culturally competent manner. The target cities for this project are in South East Los Angeles in Los Angeles County. Actual submission or funding of this program was not a requirement for successful completion of this project.

This book was released on 2021-04-12 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume advocates for justice in language rights through its explorations of bilingualism in family therapy, from the perspectives of eighteen languages identified by the authors: Black Talk/Ebonics/Slang, Farsi, Fenglish, Arabic, Italian, Cantonese Chinese, South Korean, Mandarin Chinese, Vietnamese, Spanish, Chilean Spanish, Mexican Spanish, Colombian Spanglish, Madrileño Spanish, Spanglish, Pocho Spanish, Colloquial Spanish, and English. It identifies standard English as the current language most often used across family therapy programs and services in the United States. The book discusses efforts to respond to the rapidly changing linguistic landscape and the increasingly high demand for appropriate therapy services that respond effectively to diverse families in America. It discusses recruitment and training of linguistically diverse family therapists and strategies to promote linguistic equality to support the rights of family therapists, their practices, and the communities they serve. Chapters explore ways to integrate languages in professional and personal lives, including the improvisational, self-taught translanguaging skills and practices that go beyond the lexical and grammatical rules of a language. The book describes the creative use of native or heritage languages to ensure that the juxtaposition of English therapeutic and daily-life landscapes is integrated into family therapy settings. It discusses contextual, relational, therapeutic, and training potential offered by bilingualism as well as the necessary transmutations in theory and practice. This volume is an essential resource for clinicians, therapists, and practitioners as well as researchers, professors, and graduate students in family studies, clinical psychology, and public health as well as all interrelated disciplines.

Book excerpt: Language Development: Foundations, Processes, and Clinical Applications, Second Edition provides an accessible overview of language development covering the typical course of language development within the clinical context of language assessment and intervention. The Second Edition examines the biological, developmental, and environmental systems of neurotypical children, and the role of these systems as linguistic input in the child’s environment contributing to language development. This comprehensive resource, written and contributed by over 20 experts in the field, provides students with an understanding of the foundations of language development in terms of each individual child’s communication needs. With case studies woven throughout the text, students are able to follow the progress of children with normal language development as well as those showing signs of problems. These cases and clinical practice applications will help students prepare for the clinical challenges they will face in their professional careers. Every year, new information, new theories, and new evidence are published about development to explain the complexities that create and facilitate the language acquisition process. The authors who have contributed to this text provide the latest research and perspectives on language development among neurotypical children. This valuable text bridges biological, environmental, technological, and professional venues to advance the development of professionals and children alike.
