This book was released on 2017 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study utilized a quantitative, cross-sectional, survey design to explore the knowledge and attitudes, including stereotypes, held by graduate social work students towards People Living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA). It specifically studied the relationship between the following two identified areas: (1) knowledge about the HIV virus, epidemic, and best-practices in working with PLWHA; and (2) personal biases towards those commonly infected. A nonprobability, purposive sample of 72 MSW II graduate students constituted the respondents of this study. Study findings indicate that respondents who were least comfortable providing HIV services endorsed higher levels of blaming PLWHA for contracting their disease, higher levels of personal bias towards HIV-positive pregnant women or parents, and AIDS phobia. Respondents who indicated that they were most comfortable providing HIV services, also expressed that they have attained a greater amount of information regarding HIV/AIDS treatments within their MSW program. T-tests for independent groups found that students who identified as religious were less comfortable delivering HIV services to clients, and endorsed higher levels of HIV stigma than students who identified as non-religious. The common types of HIV stigma that were endorsed at higher levels by respondents who identified as religious included: homophobia, transphobia, victim blame, AIDS phobia, and bias toward HIV-positive pregnant women or parents. Age emerged as a factor in the existence of bias, students over the age of 30 reported increased levels of bias towards commonly stigmatized HIV/AIDS groups than those in the 20 - 29 age range, this included homophobia, racism, and AIDS phobia. Additionally, findings indicate that students who had previously encountered an HIV-positive client at their field placement were more comfortable discussing HIV-related topics. Although majority of respondents fared well on the knowledge about HIV Transmission Quiz, detailed content about HIV/AIDS, including the HIV Treatment Quiz was poorly identified by the respondents with several unsure and incorrect answers. Recommendations include the imperative need to develop inclusive curriculum that integrates the diversity competencies required in the graduate social work program, with the competent knowledge and attitudinal requirements for helping PLWHA.

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 AIDS Multicultural 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.
