Sozialhilfe

Wie begegnet die Jugendhilfe den Herausforderungen der Zeit? Der zweite Band der Stuttgarter Beiträge zur Qualitätsentwicklung und Praxisforschung bietet einen umfassenden Einblick in die fachliche Vielfalt des Jugendamts Stuttgart. Er umfasst praxisbezogene Forschungsarbeiten und Analysen zu den zentralen Arbeitsbereichen Frühe Hilfen, Kindertagesbetreuung, Beratung und Erziehungshilfen sowie zu immer wichtiger werdenden Aufgaben wie Personalgewinnung und Öffentlichkeitsarbeit. Themen sind unter anderem Inklusion, Selbstvertretung junger Menschen in der Jugendhilfe und medienpraktische Konzepte in Kindertageseinrichtungen.

Die Profession Soziale Arbeit verortet sich seit jeher eng an der Schnittstelle von Individuum und Gesellschaft. Sie nimmt sowohl die oftmals erschwerten Lebensbedingungen verschiedener Menschen als auch gesamtgesellschaftliche (teilhabebehindernde) Prozesse in den Blick. Der Sammelband stellt explizit Jugendliche und junge Erwachsene in prekären Lebenslagen in den Mittelpunkt, indem in verschiedenen Beiträgen diese Zielgruppe in unterschiedlichen Lebenssituationen in ihrer theoretischen und praktischen Bedeutung für verschiedene Handlungsfelder der Sozialen Arbeit beleuchtet wird.

In seinem neuen Buch analysiert der Autor verschiedene Misserfolgsdynamiken, die zum Scheitern von pädagogischen Projekten geführt haben. Im ersten Teil stehen dabei neun Projekte aus der Zeit von 1760 bis 2006 im Mittelpunkt, die teils von bekannten Pädagog:innen wie Pestalozzi, Tolstoi, Bernfeld oder Makarenko auf den Weg gebracht wurden, teils aber auch von Unbekannten oder auf Drängen der Politik. Diese Projekt-Portraits sind spannend, weil sie Sachberichte mit Kulturgeschichte und den Biographien der Protagonisten verknüpfen und so interessante Einblicke in die Entwicklungsgeschichte der Sozialpädagogik und ihrer Institutionen ermöglichen. Im zweiten Teil systematisiert Schwabe die jeweiligen Gründe für Abbrüche und Misslingen und stellt sechs Theoriekonzepte vor, die beanspruchen, das Phänomen des Scheiterns jeweils auf eigenständige Weise zu durchdringen. So gelingt es dem Buch, einen genuin erziehungswissenschaftlichen Beitrag zum häufig verdrängten Thema 'Scheitern' bzw. 'Misslingen' zu formulieren. Dabei stellt sich immer wieder die Frage, ob und was man aus Scheitern lernen kann.

"It's an invaluable insider account of a pressing social issue." - Publishers Weekly Joining the ranks of Evicted and The New Jim Crow, a former caseworker's searing, clear-eyed investigation of the child welfare system-from foster care to incarceration-that exposes the deep-rooted biases shaping the system, witnessed through the lives of several Black families.Dr. Jessica Pryce knows the child welfare system firsthand and, in this long overdue work of narrative nonfiction, breaks it down from the inside out, sharing her professional journey and offering the crucial perspectives of caseworkers and Black women impacted by the system. It is a groundbreaking and eye-opening confrontation of the inherent and systemic racism deeply entrenched within the child welfare system.Pryce started her social work career with an internship where she was committed to helping keep children safe. In the book, she walks alongside her close friends and even her family as they navigate the system, while sharing her own reckoning with the requirements of her job and her role in the systemic harm. Through poignant narratives and introspection, readers witness the harrowing effects of a well-intentioned workforce that has lost its way, demonstrating how family separation is often not in a child's best interests.With a renewed commitment to strengthening families in her role as activist, Pryce invites the child welfare workforce to embark on a journey of self-reflection and radical growth. At once a framework for child protective services reform and an intimate, stunning first-hand account of the system as it currently operates, Broken takes everyday scenarios as its focus rather than extreme child welfare cases, challenging readers to critically examine their own mindsets and biases in order to reimagine how we help families in need.This groundbreaking book confronts the uncomfortable truths of the child welfare system:- A Caseworker's Memoir: Follow Dr. Pryce's personal journey from a well-intentioned intern to a reform-focused activist, and her reckoning with her own role in a system causing harm.- Systemic Racism Exposed: Through the harrowing, real-life stories of Black families, uncover the deep-rooted biases that lead to disproportionate surveillance and family separation.- Moral Injury in Social Work: An unflinching look at the emotional and psychological toll on the child welfare workforce, caught between bureaucratic mandates and the human cost to families.- Poverty and Neglect: Challenge the conventional wisdom that separates poverty from neglect by examining everyday scenarios that criminalize families for their lack of resources.- A Framework for Change: Discover a path forward for social workers, policymakers, and advocates to dismantle a broken system and build a new, family-centered approach to child protection.

Der Umgang mit dem Jobcenter kann mit Schwierigkeiten verbunden sein, wenn man Leistungen nach dem SGB II beantragen möchte oder diese bereits bezieht. Einige Menschen nehmen zur Unterstützung Beratungsangebote in Anspruch. In der ethnografisch angelegten Studie werden vom Jobcenter unabhängige Sozialberatungsangebote untersucht. Im Zentrum steht dabei die Dreiecksbeziehung von Adressat*innen, Sozialberatung und Jobcenter. In der Beratungssituation zeigt sich die Selbstkonstruktion der unabhängigen Sozialberatung und es ergeben sich verschiedene Modi des Herausarbeitens des Bearbeitbaren.

“If you want to help create a more equitable world but don’t know where to start, Infectious Generosity is for you.”—Bill Gates, GatesNotes <BR><BR>The bestselling author, media pioneer, and curator of TED explores one of humankind’s defining but overlooked impulses, and how we can super-charge its potential to build a hopeful future<BR><BR>Let’s face it: Recent years have been tough on optimists. Hopes that the Internet might bring people together have been crushed by the ills of social media. Is there a way back?<BR><BR>As head of TED, Chris Anderson has had a ringside view of the world’s boldest thinkers sharing their most uplifting ideas. Inspired by them, he believes that it’s within our grasp to turn outrage back into optimism. It all comes down to reimagining one of the most fundamental human virtues: generosity. What if generosity could become infectious generosity? Consider <BR><BR>• how a London barber began offering haircuts to people experiencing homelessness—and catalyzed a movement<BR>• how two anonymous donors gave $10,000 each to two hundred strangers and discovered that most recipients wanted to “pay it forward” with their own generous acts<BR>• how TED itself transformed from a niche annual summit into a global beacon of ideas by giving away talks online, allowing millions access to free learning<BR><BR>In telling these inspiring stories, Anderson has given us “the first page-turner ever written about human generosity” (Elizabeth Dunn). More important, he offers a playbook for how to embark on our own generous acts—whether gifts of money, time, talent, connection, or kindness—and to prime them, thanks to the Internet, to have self-replicating, even world-changing, impact.

Nel 2011 la vita di Nico Acampora è come quella di tanti altri padri di una famiglia con entrambi i genitori che lavorano: sempre di corsa, col tempo dettato dal ritmo degli impegni professionali, lui educatore iperattivo nell'ambito del sociale in Brianza, lei, Stefania, infermiera instancabile in un grande ospedale lombardo. Ma un giorno, improvvisamente, il tempo si ferma. La diagnosi: Leo, due anni, il secondogenito, è autistico. Nico sa bene cosa li aspetta, lo ha visto con i suoi occhi troppe volte... Seguono giorni, anni terribili, e notti insonni. Ed è proprio una notte di queste che Nico fa un sogno a occhi aperti, nel quale rivede una scena della sera prima, quando lui, Stefania, Leo e sua sorella Giulia ridevano insieme facendo la pizza a casa, sul tavolo della cucina. Rivede Leo felice e impiastricciato mettere le mani nella farina e poi stendere il pomodoro su un impasto da preparare per amici di famiglia. E il tempo riprende a scorrere. Nasce così il progetto PizzAut, l'idea della prima pizzeria gestita interamente da persone autistiche, dalla preparazione al servizio ai tavoli. Da allora, molte cose sono successe: Maria De Filippi e l'invito a Tú sí que vales; il lockdown che sembra bloccare l'imminente apertura della pizzeria, con Nico che non si scoraggia e, grazie a un camion, inventa il food truck più inclusivo che esista, e consegna la pizza Aut ai medici in prima linea negli ospedali Covid. Poi il momento in cui finalmente si apre la pizzeria a Cassina de' Pecchi, appena fuori Milano, e poi l'incontro con Papa Francesco con indosso il grembiule di PizzAut in Vaticano, la visita di Mattarella per l'inaugurazione del secondo locale di Monza, la citazione inaspettata nel discorso di fine anno del Presidente della Repubblica, ma soprattutto le storie e le gioie di tanti ragazzi e ragazze e delle loro famiglie, finalmente tornate a sognare. Questo libro straordinario le racconta tutte, con lo stesso febbrile entusiasmo del suo autore, che con il suo esempio sembra urlare al mondo che è ancora vietato calpestare i sogni, e lo sarà sempre, finché ci saranno persone come lui e i suoi ragazzi.

Over seven percent of all children in the United States--more than 5 million children--have experienced a parental incarceration, and an estimated 2.7 million children currently have a parent who is incarcerated. An additional 5 million children under age 18 live with at least one parent who is unauthorized to be in the United States and faces deportation. Children and other dependents suffer the collateral consequences of "preventive justice" measures increasingly used by liberal democratic countries to combat a broad range of suspected crime and anti-state activities. But what does the state owe to the innocent dependents of accused caregivers?In Born Innocent, Michael J. Sullivan explores the impact of vicarious punishment on children, with a particular focus on children in socioeconomically disadvantaged and racialized communities that are disproportionately subject to family separation based on their identity, allegiances, and immigration status. Sullivan advocates a turn from retribution to rehabilitation for convicted offenders, with a view towards helping them to become more effective caregivers who can continue to support their dependents during their sentence. Born Innocent goes beyond the children's rights literature on the collateral consequences of punishment to consider how "punishment drift" creates problems for both retributive and utilitarian theories of punishment. He draws on care ethics theory to widen our understanding of the range of collateral victims of punishment as well as possible rehabilitative and restorative measures. Sullivan also considers the limits of this approach, especially where it pertains to offenders who victimize their families, and those who resist rehabilitation and persist in anti-state actions that harm others. Original and compelling, Born Innocent provides one of the first unified treatments of state-sponsored family separation and its impact on disadvantaged citizens and immigrants.

The Code of Hammurabi is a well-preserved ancient law code, created circa 1760 BC in ancient Babylon. It was enacted by the sixth Babylonian king, Hammurabi. The stele containing the Code of Hammurabi was discovered in 1901 by the Egyptologist Gustav Jequier, a member of the expedition headed by Jacques de Morgan. The stele was discovered in what is now Khuzestan, Iran (ancient Susa, Elam), where it had been taken as plunder by the Elamite king Shutruk-Nahhunte in the 12th century BC. It is currently on display at the Louvre Museum in Paris.

Männer und Frauen sind in Deutschland noch immer nicht gleichberechtigt. Angesichts ausdifferenzierter Lebenslagen von Frauen steht die Frauen- und Gleichstellungspolitik vor großen Herausforderungen. Die politischen Themen, die dringend diskutiert werden müssen, sind vielfältig: etwa die Ungleichheiten auf dem Arbeitsmarkt und in der Entlohnung, die ungerechte Verteilung von unbezahlter Arbeit im Haushalt oder bei der häuslichen Pflege. Der Diskurs um Geschlechtergerechtigkeit muss noch mehr geführt werden. Die AWO hat notwendige Gleichberechtigungsdiskussionen immer schon angestoßen und geführt. Der vorliegende Sonderband steht in dieser Tradition.
