Child and Family Welfare Scenario

You work for your state’s child protection services as a case manager in the foster care division. Often, your days are unpredictable because your clients tend to see you only when in crisis. This particular morning, you arrive at the office to find a mother named Jodi and her five children sitting outside of your office waiting for you. When you ask her how you can help, she tells you that she and the children were evicted from their home. Two of her five children are foster children who she has been taking care of for the past year. Jodi tells you through her tears that she allowed her brother, who was just released from jail to stay with them until he was able to find a job and save some money. He was caught smoking marijuana in his car in the parking lot of the apartment complex four months ago. The landlord decided that he did not want Jodi to live there anymore and notified her that when her lease ran out, she must leave. Jodi said that she did not believe her landlord and thought that he would change his mind, so she did not look for another home. Now she wants to return the foster children and wants you help her to find housing. She cannot stop crying as she tells you all of this and at times, raises her voice. While she is crying, the five children begin to pull things off your desk.

With this in mind, respond to the questions below.

In your chosen scenario, identify the crisis event and the main problem leading to the crisis. Describe the problem in detail, thinking about whether the client might have missed cues that the crisis was approaching.
Propose appropriate interventions that will stabilize the client’s situation and foster the development of self-sufficiency skills and prevention strategies to help prevent future situations from occurring.
How will you evaluate the effectiveness of your intervention plan?

You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.

Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.

Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.

The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument.
