SOCIAL WORK IN JUVENILE AND CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEMS (4th Ed.)

By: David W. Springer,Albert R. Roberts

Social Work in Juvenile and Criminal Justice Systems sets the standard of care for mental health treatment and the delivery of social services to crime victims, juvenile and adult offenders, and their families. The chapters, all authored by experts in the field and all committed to the mission of social justice, are written with the clear understanding that we cannot study criminal justice in a vacuum. Therefore, a major focus of the book is on the renewed growing sense of the profession’s obligation to social justice. Each chapter interconnects with the various components of juvenile and criminal justice. Another prominent aspect of the book is that it is strength-based. It views those involved in the criminal and juvenile justice systems as individuals rather than inmates or criminals, each with unique positive talents and abilities. The book is divided into four sections. The first section discusses forensic social work, including crime and delinquency theories, trends, and ethical issues. The second section prepares social workers for practice in correctional institutions and explores crisis intervention with victims of violence, reentry of adult offenders in society, and aging in prison. The third section covers assessment and intervention in child sexual abuse, mental health and substance abuse, interpersonal violence and prevention, child welfare and juvenile justice. The final section presents an overview on social work in the twenty-first century, which includes restorative justice and the justice system, new ways of delivering justice, domestic violence, neighborhood revitalization, race and ethnicity, and social work practice with LGBTQ offenders. This book will be the best single source on social work in criminal justice settings and will prove to be an invaluable resource for the many professionals who have responsibility for formulating and carrying out the mandates of the criminal justice system.

Crisis Intervention and Time-Limited Cognitive Treatment

By: Albert R. Roberts

In these turbulent times, thorough grounding in crisis intervention and cognitive approaches are important components of every practitioner′s repertoire. The chapters in this volume provide highly informative, up-to-date, and practical resources for the application of these interrelated approaches to many major crisis situations in which we must prepare ourselves and our students to intervene. This is an excellent resource for my graduate students and community training interns. --John Kalafat, Ph.D., Professor of Psychology, Spalding University and Co-Chair, School Committee, American Association of Suicidology "In a world of increasing global awareness of violence and disaster coupled with decreasing budgets and an emphasis on briefer interventions, practitioners need to expand and modify intervention strategies. The contributors to this volume present a wide range of techniques within Albert R. Roberts′s crisis intervention model. For those in the trauma field, this book is a wealth of information and referral sources." --Mary Beth Williams, Ph.D., LCSW, Trauma Recover Education & Counseling Center, Warrenton, Virginia "Albert R. Roberts has provided a much-needed text that belongs on every criminal justice professional′s bookshelf. Crisis Intervention and Time-Limited Cognitive Treatment covers the emerging trends within the field in an outstanding manner." --Harvey Wallace, J.D., Director, Victims Institute and Professor, Department of Criminal Justice, California State University, Fresno "Albert R. Roberts′s edited book is the most comprehensive book I have seen on the application of cognitive therapy to the practice of crisis intervention and time-limited treatment. Crisis Intervention and Time-Limited Cognitive Treatment will be necessary reading by all mental health and social service administrators and practitioners who are often struggling to respond to the changing realities brought about by managed care. This is the first book to provide a national perspective on 24-hour crisis hotlines, cognitive therapy, and crisis intervention units of community mental health centers. it includes detailed information on crisis intervention and 24-hour crisis hotlines in every state in the nation. This exceptionally well-written book also includes valuable guidelines, practice wisdom, and cognitive therapy techniques for intervening with domestic stalking victims, battered women, rape victims, persons with sexual disorders, persons with AIDS, disaster victims, and families of homicide victims. This groundbreaking, provocative volume does an excellent job of integrating theory and foundation skills with the latest brief cognitive therapy technology in dealing with a wide range of client problems that practitioners deal with on a regular basis. I predict that this timely book will become a classic for all of us who strive to resolve acute psychological as well as situational crises." --Gilbert J. Greene, Associate Professor of Social Work, The Ohio State University "Albert R. Roberts′s new volume significantly extends his earlier groundbreaking work in the field of crisis intervention by showing how cognitive approaches can help clients cope with a wide variety of crises. Using detailed case histories, Roberts and his contributors have shown how short-term treatment can play a major role in helping people regain their equilibrium when faced with high-risk situations." --Bernard Bloom, Professor Emeritus of Psychology, University of Colorado at Boulder "With the publication of this book, Dr. Roberts has met a critical need. At a time when a wide range of criminal justice and other professionals are called upon to respond to individuals and communities in crisis situations, Dr. Roberts has developed an outstanding resource and most inclusive book on crisis intervention. The thorough presentation of both established and cutting-edge strategies, crisis treatment, trauma therapy, and survivors′ services will make this book the essential tool for criminologists, criminal justice professors, victimologists, forensic psychologists, as well as service providers. This volume is packed with vivid case examples and practical step-by-step applications, and up-to-date information about how to help persons in crisis, including suicide attempters, disaster victims, hostages, stalking victims, rape victims, and parents of murdered children. The book also includes a 90-page directory of suicide prevention agencies, rape crisis programs, battered women′s shelters, addiction treatment programs, and victim assistance programs." --Jane Nady Burnley, Ph.D., Executive Director, VALOR: Victims′ Assistance Legal Organization, Inc. and former Director,

Introduction to Green Chemistry

Introduction to Green Chemistry

By: John Andraos,Albert S. Matlack

Interest in green chemistry and clean processes has grown so much in recent years that topics such as fluorous biphasic catalysis, metal organic frameworks, and process intensification, which were barely mentioned in the First Edition, have become major areas of research. In addition, government funding has ramped up the development of fuel cells and biofuels. This reflects the evolving focus from pollution remediation to pollution prevention. Copiously illustrated with more than 800 figures, the Third Edition provides an update from the frontiers of the field. It features supplementary exercises at the end of each chapter relevant to the chemical examples introduced in each chapter. Particular attention is paid to a new concluding chapter on the use of green metrics as an objective tool to demonstrate proof of synthesis plan efficiency and to identify where further improvements can be made through fully worked examples relevant to the chemical industry. NEW AND EXPANDED RESEARCH TOPICS Metal-organic frameworks Metrics Solid acids for alkylation of isobutene by butanes Carbon molecular sieves Mixed micro- and mesoporous solids Organocatalysis Process intensification and gas phase enzymatic reactions Hydrogen storage for fuel cells Reactive distillation Catalysts in action on an atomic scale UPDATED AND EXPANDED CURRENT EVENTS TOPICS Industry resistance to inherently safer chemistry Nuclear power Removal of mercury from vaccines Removal of mercury and lead from primary explosives Biofuels Uses for surplus glycerol New hard materials to reduce wear Electronic waste Smart growth The book covers traditional green chemistry topics, including catalysis, benign solvents, and alternative feedstocks. It also discusses relevant but less frequently covered topics with chapters such as "Chemistry of Long Wear" and "Population and the Environment." This coverage highlights the importance of chemistry to everyday life and demonstrates the benefits the expanded exploitation of green chemistry can have for society.

Helping Victims of Violent Crime

Helping Victims of Violent Crime

Assessment, Treatment, and Evidence-Based Practice

By: Diane L. Green, PhD,Albert R. Roberts, DSW, PhD, BCETS, DACFE

Over the past two decades, violent crime has become one of the most serious domestic problems in the United States. Approximately 13 million people (nearly 5% of the U.S. population) are victims of crime every year, and of that, approximately one and a half million are victims of violent crime. Ensuring quality of life for victims of crime is therefore a major challenge facing policy makers and mental health providers. Helping Victims of Violent Crime grounds victim assistance treatments in a victim-centered and strengths perspective. The book explores victim assistance through systems theory: the holistic notion of examining the client in his/her environment and a key theoretical underpinning of social work practice. The basic assumption of systems theoryis homeostasis. A crime event causes a change in homeostasis and often results in disequilibrium. The victim's focus at this point is to regain equilibrium. Under the systems metatheory, coping, crisis and attribution theories provide a good framework for victim-centered intervention. Stress and coping theories posit that three factors determine the state of balance: perception of the event, available situational support, and coping mechanisms. Crisis theory offers a framework to understand a victim's response to a crime. The basic assumption of crisis theory asserts that when a crisis occurs, people respond with a fairly predictable physical and emotional pattern. The intensity and manifestation of this pattern may vary from individual to individual. Finally, attribution theory asserts that individuals make cognitive appraisals of a stressful situation in both positive and negative ways. These appraisals are based on the individual's assertion that they can understand, predict, and control circumstances and result in the victim's assignment of responsibility for solving or helping with problems that have arisen from the crime event. In summary, these four theories can delineate a definitive model for approach to the victimization process. It is from this theoretical framework that Treating Victims of Violent Crime offers assessments and interventions with a fuller understanding of the victimization recovery process. The book includes analysis of victims of family violence (child abuse, elder abuse, partner violence) as well as stranger violence (sexual assault, homicide, and terrorism).

Handbook of Domestic Violence Intervention Strategies

Policies, Programs, and Legal Remedies

By: Albert R. Roberts

Public awareness regarding the life-threatening nature and intense traumatic impact of domestic violence has substantially increased in the past decade. At the same time, dramatic changes have taken place regarding criminal justice and social work policies and practices applied to domestic violence intervention. And while the prevalence of domestic violence has declined slightly, national estimates still indicate that every year, approximately eight million women are abused, battered, stalked, or killed by their husbands, boyfriends, and other intimate partners. Featuring cutting-edge research and expert intervention strategies, the Handbook of Domestic Violence Intervention Strategies: Policies, Programs, and Legal Remedies is designed to prepare professionals to swiftly and compassionately meet the multiple needs of women and children who have suffered from domestic violence. This original and indispensable volume focuses on the numerous advances in legal remedies, program developments, treatment protocols, and multidisciplinary perspectives. It is a comprehensive guide to the latest research, public policies, and legal and criminal justice responses, covering federal and state legislation as well as trends in police and court responses to domestic violence. This is the first book to include court-based technology developments and new research related to the duration and intensity of woman battering. Highlighting actual cases and promising programs, the handbook also addresses important social work issues, including risk assessment protocols, a new five level continuum of woman battering, intervention methods, and treatment models. The book also examines the myriad legal issues and health problems facing the most neglected and vulnerable battered women. Written by expert practitioners and leading scholars in the field, the book's 23 chapters provide rich insights into the complexities and challenges of addressing domestic violence. This timely and definitive handbook is recommended for students, clinicians, policy makers, and researchers in the fields of social work, victim services, criminal justice, hospital administration, mental health counseling, public health, pastoral counseling, law enforcement. In fact, this volume is a critical resource for all helping professionals who are assisting abused women in escaping and remaining free from violent relationships.

Death by Domestic Violence

Preventing the Murders and Murder-Suicides

By: Katherine van Wormer,Albert R. Roberts

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

Death by Domestic Violence

Preventing the Murders and Murder-Suicides

By: Katherine van Wormer,Albert R. Roberts

Each year, about 33 percent of all women and 3 percent of all men murdered in the United States, are killed by a so-called intimate, a spouse, partner, or lover. Nationwide, murder by an intimate is the number one cause of death for pregnant women. And murder by an intimate is not just an American problem. A European task force recently found domestic violence accounts for 25 percent of all homicides in London, and 35 percent across England and Wales. In this timely book, van Wormer and Roberts describe the problem, and what they have seen and heard on the front lines with both women and men who have escaped domestic violence that was escalating toward deadly levels. The text examines not only the psychology of the batterer but of domestic murder, and domestic murder-suicide. Drawn from the experience and insights of these two widely-known social workers, the text includes a safety plan for those at risk and a chapter providing narratives of women in prison for killing their abusive husband or partner. Drawing on the experience and insights of these two widely-known social workers, Death by Domestic Violence separates domestic violence myths and facts, explains the traumatic bonding that occurs between batterer and victim, and details how one facet of the solution could be school-based interventions and education. The book culminates with recommendations for further reduction of harm and a safety plan for those at risk.
