Abstract:

ABSTRACT The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate that one way New Zealand's high prevalence of child abuse can be reduced is by the government increasing the legislative and policy responses within an ecological framework, to child abuse prevention. This is because such responses would ensure a 'best practice' approach to child abuse prevention. This 'best-practice' approach is one where child abuse prevention measures are community-driven, child-centred, multi-disciplinary and inter-sectoral. Section 1 of this thesis will provide a background on the different types of child abuse, why

Abstract:

Child maltreatment is a public health problem directly linked to poor outcomes across the lifespan, including chronic health conditions and even death. The local population served by the agency in which the project took place experienced an increase in reports of child maltreatment. Agency leadership identified deficiencies in parental knowledge about positive parenting practices as a contributing factor to the problem. To address the problem, the agency implemented a quality improvement evidence-based home visiting pilot initiative. The evaluation of that initiative was the purpose of this pr

Abstract:

The creation of this thesis arose due to the need to create a compiled text that informs and supports educators in choosing an effective program in order to empower their students in speaking up and saying no, protecting younger generations from the risk of abuse or sexual abuse. As a result, the thesis delves into discovering and assessing three different schoolbased prevention programs against Child Sexual Abuse (CSA), which are: Stay Safe (Ireland), Turvataitokasvatus (Finland) and Cool and Safe (Germany). For a more informative and structured assessment the thesis investigates the effects

Abstract:

Public policy has been shifting from child abuse and neglect (CAN) intervention toward prevention, using public health style frameworks, which emphasize shared community and legislative responsibilities to support families (Browne, 2014; CDC, 2014). Analysis of qualitative data from statewide focus groups held in 2019 in Alabama with 99 community-based CAN prevention workers shows strengths in community collaboration, but also, struggles to help families meet basic needs because of lack of community resources, such as transportation and quality child care, and other barriers, including stigma.

Abstract:

Background: Child sexual abuse is a global public health and human rights concern. Despite beinga crime in most countries, and with well-known physical and mental health consequences, the majority of sexual offences are not reported. Child sexual abuse is a maltreatment form characterized by contact or non-contact acts perpetrated by adults or older children toward younger children who have little power to resist. This thesis aims to understand the social context of child sexualabuse, and the perceived roles of parents, community, and key professionals in handling such incidents in urban Tanza

Abstract:

The focus in child sexual abuse work has been on the identification and treatment of the victim. Less emphasis has been placed, in Clinical Psychology generally and in relation to child sexual abuse particularly, on prevention. This is not true of the United States, where there is an extensive policy of school education / prevention programmes. The utility of these can be questioned and there has been a move to engage parents as the primary educator of children about sexual abuse. However, this can only go ahead if the knowledge and behaviours of parents are understood. In this present study,

There is constant struggle to get the adequate services, resources and trained staff in this rural area because it is isolated and it takes about two hours’ travel time to get to the metropolitan cities. The literature review discusses child welfare services challenges, strengths and social capital to support families and children as well as the child welfare system itself in rural areas.

This study addressed a significant gap in the literature by developing and evaluating the Speak7 African American Child Sexual Abuse Prevention Program (Speak7).

Child sexual abuse (CSA) is influenced by multiple individual and contextual risk and protective factors, requiring “an entire spectrum of necessary prevention strategies applied over time” (Prescott et al., 2010, p.3). Despite recognition of this complexity, CSA prevention over the last 30 years has primarily focused on educating children about CSA risks and teaching them the relevant protective behaviours to enact. Prevention advocates have recognised the need to include parents in prevention, however their role is usually limited to that of educator, teaching their children about CSA and pr

Abstract:

Child Sexual Abuse is a serious and complex issue for South Africa, demonstrating one of the highest prevalence rates in the world. Scarcity of professional resources demands effective intervention through prevention programmes which largely rely on non-profit organisations as a last hope to decrease the excessively high rates of abuse. Due to lack of resources within the non-profit organisations, they largely rely on volunteers who are often from the late adolescent developmental stage to present these prevention programmes.

Usually the adult abuser takes advantage of the child’s innocence and trust in adults. In many cases, the abuser threatens or bribes the child to keep silent. Because of t he threats, fear and embarrassment, most children do not tell anyone about the abuse. Keeping the secret of abuse only causes more emotional stress for the child and the family.
