Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This much-needed book presents an introduction and overview of multicultural AIDS issues in social work practice. In a culturally diverse nation, it is essential that professionals look at AIDS within a cultural context in order to find the most effective treatment and prevention strategies for everyone. Emphasizing this need for a culturally sensitive approach, Multicultural Human Services for AIDS Treatment and Prevention increases social workers’often limited knowledge and experience with various social and ethnic groups. It provides specific suggestions and recommendations for program development and acts as a foundation upon which to build new strategies for policy, research, and practice. Multicultural Human Services for AIDS Treatment and Prevention emphasizes the importance of encouraging and sharing research that addresses AIDS and minority populations and assessing prevention, education, and behavioral change strategies from culturally specific and relevant perspectives. It includes chapters focusing on African Americans, Native American Indians, Hawaiians, Puerto Ricans, and Mexican prostitutes--groups that often suffer disproportionately from poverty and its myriad effects. Some topics discussed in the book are: helping clients reduce cultural dissonance how to enhance behavior change child welfare and permanency planning empowerment of clients and health care models knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors regarding HIV/AIDS cultural contradictions and ambivalence in response to AIDSMulticultural Human Services for AIDS Treatment and Prevention is an extremely useful and informative book for all professionals in social work and human services who want to be better prepared to help all groups of people. The book is also an ideal text for upper-level social work students studying topics such as multicultural issues in social work practice, AIDS in a cultural context, and health policy and health care systems.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Human Immunodeficiency Virus and Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome have had a substantial impact on thousands of Canadians. The increase of HIV disease in vulnerable populations means that there is an expanding role for social workers to meet the needs of these individuals and to prevent the spread of further infection. The literature on HIV/AIDS reveals that it is a disease surrounded by stigmatization, and discrimination on social, political, personal and professional levels. Although much has been discovered and learned about this disease, deficits in knowledge, nd preparation to work with these clients exist. This exploratory study investigated the attitudes, knowledge and comfort of 134 students enrolled at various stages of the Bachelor of Social Work and Premasters programs at the Faculty of Social Work, University of Manitoba. The role of social work values in professionally preparing these students with appropriate attitudes toward the disease was also investigated. Several additional variables related to experience with the disease, interest in working with the disease, and demographic variables were also incorporated into this study. The results of this study demonstrated that overall, respondents held appropriate attitudes toward the disease, however, deficits in knowledge regarding the populations who have been most impacted by the disease, as well as resources for individuals with HIV/AIDS, were revealed. Respondents' attitudes were found to be significantly related to their ability to apply values to practice situations, their knowledge of the disease, and their attitudes toward being in contact with those with the disease. It was hoped that this study would increase understanding of how to best prepare students for their professional roles in dealing with a multi-faceted problem such as HIV/AIDS. Implications for future coursework and educational preparation for students to work effectively in their roles as social workers with HIV/AIDS are dis.

This book was released on 1993-02-01 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Europe's "Black Death" contributed to the rise of nation states, mercantile economies, and even the Reformation. Will the AIDS epidemic have similar dramatic effects on the social and political landscape of the twenty-first century? This readable volume looks at the impact of AIDS since its emergence and suggests its effects in the next decade, when a million or more Americans will likely die of the disease. The Social Impact of AIDS in the United States addresses some of the most sensitive and controversial issues in the public debate over AIDS. This landmark book explores how AIDS has affected fundamental policies and practices in our major institutions, examining: How America's major religious organizations have dealt with sometimes conflicting values: the imperative of care for the sick versus traditional views of homosexuality and drug use. Hotly debated public health measures, such as HIV antibody testing and screening, tracing of sexual contacts, and quarantine. The potential risk of HIV infection to and from health care workers. How AIDS activists have brought about major change in the way new drugs are brought to the marketplace. The impact of AIDS on community-based organizations, from volunteers caring for individuals to the highly political ACT-UP organization. Coping with HIV infection in prisons. Two case studies shed light on HIV and the family relationship. One reports on some efforts to gain legal recognition for nonmarital relationships, and the other examines foster care programs for newborns with the HIV virus. A case study of New York City details how selected institutions interact to give what may be a picture of AIDS in the future. This clear and comprehensive presentation will be of interest to anyone concerned about AIDS and its impact on the country: health professionals, sociologists, psychologists, advocates for at-risk populations, and interested individuals.
