Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: RECOVER WHAT TRAUMA HAS STOLEN FROM YOUR CHILD Children from traumatic backgrounds (including foster and adoptive children) have often been asked to give up pretend, play, and childhood in order to survive in an adult world. This is unfortunate as we tend to learn crucial lessons about the world and ourselves within the confines of childhood play. While children might be removed from the cause of chronic trauma, the concept of play will not come naturally for them. This book (along with the complimentary parent activity guide) will help you and your child to discover a world of pretend where your child can also conquer issues in relationship.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many people embark on the journey of adoption and foster care but are unprepared for the challenges that await them along the way. Replanted takes an honest look at the joys and hardships that come with choosing this journey and provides a model of faith-based support made up of three parts to help families thrive: Soil, Sunlight, and Water. Soil, or emotional support, addresses the need for grace-filled settings where families can connect with other families who understand their experience. Sunlight, or informational support, focuses on obtaining helpful training to raise children who may have unique needs or challenges. Water, or tangible support, deals with concrete resources such as medical care, child care, and financial support. Throughout the book, the Replanted model is brought to life by stories and examples based on the clinical work and personal experiences of the authors. Their candid insight will serve families who are actively involved in adoption or foster care, as well as people who are eager to help support those families. Replanted affirms that with the right support system in place, parents can answer this sacred call not only with open hearts but also with their eyes wide open.

Book excerpt: The Angry Little Girl is a book written to validate the loss, anger and lack of control children in foster care can feel. It is written through the eyes of a seven year old that was in foster care for 4 years before being adopted. It discusses how unsafe she felt moving from one foster home to another and it gives in-sight to how even a safe environment can feel scary when you are little. It also validates feelings of loss and rejection that arose from each move. This book is written to help children in foster care understand it is ok to be angry sometimes and sometimes life is not fair. It is not the fault of the children in foster care, they are little. It is the job of the adults to make good decisions and keep them safe.

Book Synopsis Profiles Of Coping Behaviors Among Youth In Foster Care by : Celina Maria Joos
Download or read book Profiles Of Coping Behaviors Among Youth In Foster Care written by Celina Maria Joos and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this dissertation is to contribute to knowledge of how youth in foster care cope with stressors. Two studies will be presented, both of which involve the same sample of youth in foster care recruited as part of the Studying Pathways to Adjustment and Resilience in Kids (SPARK) project (Jackson, Gabrielli, Tunno, and Hambrick, 2012). In the first study, latent profile analysis was used to identify and describe subgroups of children based on patterns of coping use. The results support the existence of four profiles of coping behaviors: Minimal, Active, Defensive, and Indiscriminant. The profiles were distinguished by differences in age and concurrent psychopathology, with youth in the Active Coping profile exhibiting the most resilient functioning by youth and caregiver report. The second study replicated the findings of Study 1 in a subsample of youth who participated in assessments at baseline and again three months later, testing the relationship between coping behaviors and future psychopathology. Findings partially support the contextual specificity of coping, such that children in foster care who exhibited a Defensive Coping profile were significantly more likely than youth in the more prototypically adaptive profile, Active Coping, to experience a decrease in psychopathology symptoms three months later. Collectively, these findings provide an important foundation that may guide future research on coping behaviors among children in foster care, in the interest of developing interventions that can better prevent psychopathology.

Download or read book Providing Trauma-informed Care for Children in the Foster Care System written by Hannah Genn and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Foster parents need to be trained in trauma-informed approaches and how to identify previous traumas in order to understand how their foster children’s past experiences of abuse or neglect manifest as mental disorders, social challenges, or behavioral concerns. Warning signs for depression or post-traumatic stress disorder should be noted, and youth should be taught how to foster healthy relationships in order to prevent substance abuse, irresponsible sexual activity, or academic failing. Foster parents can provide additional support by creating reasonable expectations for their foster children, teaching effective coping skills, and connecting with available resources.
Book Synopsis Undercover Angels by : Angel P. Valdes
Download or read book Undercover Angels written by Angel P. Valdes and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2013-08-21 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a how to inspirational book for all foster children who can read or can be read to by their foster parents, their therapists, their mentors, etc; to guide them in their emotional and spiritual quest for persons who can make them feel safe and loved, while they temporarily live in foster care or are waiting for adoptive parents. The purpose of this book is to help make foster children aware of what they can do for themselves to attract and stay close to loving and safe people who will guide them and encourage them as they get older and stronger emotionally. This book aims to support and validate the crucial role of foster parents and adoptive parents, and show appreciation for their labor of love and to motivate and inspire them to continue believing that their work is divine. Volunteers, social workers, therapists, guardian ad litems, teachers, counselors, mentors, parents, or anybody who is thinking about how to make a difference in this world by caring for and loving a child who needs a parent substitute, will be inspired as well. This book is especially designed as a guide for therapists who work with children in foster care, as it offers an opening for the discussion of issues relevant and important to the children. The utilization of the spiritual perspective is emphasized, to help children use it as another resource to cope with the intense emotions that the dismantling of their family creates in them. If we are to establish a lasting meaningful relationship with a child based on mutual respect and love, we need to first make the long term commitment and take the time to spend with a child, to give, to listen, to wipe the tears, to spend the money, the energy and the love, and to use the talents we have all been given by our Creator, to make the life of a child meaningful and worthy of Angels! Update: The book is getting good reviews in the Child Welfare community.

Book Synopsis An Analysis of the Effects of Trauma on Foster Youth Aging Out of the Florida Foster Care System by : Kesia Vazquez
Download or read book An Analysis of the Effects of Trauma on Foster Youth Aging Out of the Florida Foster Care System written by Kesia Vazquez and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the U.S. there are approximately 25,000 youth that leave the Child Welfare System without a stable long-term housing arrangement and are left to age out of foster care and transition into adulthood (Dion, Dworsky, Kauff, & Kleinman, 2014, p. iii). These foster youth alumni (FYA) travel through various paths yet share many traumatic events that cause long-term effects that influence coping skills. This qualitative and phenomenological study aims to investigate the various traumas experienced, before and during foster care, and the coping skills that FYA have developed. A total of 16 FYA, from the Florida Child Welfare System, were enrolled in the study and completed a demographic survey and semi-structured interview to share their experiences entering and aging-out of the system. From these interviews, shared themes resonated through the collective group: Lack of Basic Skills, Coping Strategies, and System Barriers. In addition, several sub-themes were highlighted in the study that further illustrate their experiences. The study results display gaps in the system where this vulnerable population is often being re-traumatized. This inturn affects how FYA behave and the skills used to cope while succumbing them to a higher probability of confronting additional obstacles than those foster youth who are reunified, adopted, and/or placed in a stable home. The investigator intends for these results to help improve Child Welfare best practices and begin further discussion on needed actions to provide the appropriate support and programs to aid FYA to independence.
