Chapter 10
Intervention: Reporting, Investigation, and Assessment
Culturally Sensitive Intervention:
Cultural Competence Defined
• Culture: goes beyond race and ethnicity, including religious
identification, gender identity/expression, & sexual
orientation.
• Cultural Competence: “a heightened consciousness of how
culturally diverse populations experience their uniqueness
and deal with their differences and similarities within a larger
social context” (NASW, 2015, p.10)
Culturally Sensitive Intervention: Putting
Cultural Competence into Practice
• Determine family’s level of acculturation and the reason for
their immigration
• Assess how the family views a social worker’s power
• Understand how the family views itself, and their sense of
family cohesion
• Acknowledge varying communication styles
• Learn about culture, but do not over-generalize
• Consult with bilingual and bicultural staff
• Know how one’s (helping professional’s) own values interface
with the client’s
Understanding the Intervention
Process: Reporting
• Mandated reporters: individuals who, in their professional
relationship with the child and family, may encounter child
maltreatment.
• State laws specify repointing agency, reportable conditions,
responsibility of mandated reporters, and the investigation
process
• Although anonymous reports may be accepted, they are not
preferred since they do not allow for follow-up questions
Understanding the Intervention
Process: Child Protection Teams
• Child Protection Teams (CPT): comprised of staff from
different disciplines
• Ex) School-based CPT include an administrator, a guidance
counselor, school nurse, and one or two teachers.
• Suspicions of child maltreatment are brought to CPT.
• If CPT agrees with the report, then the child protection
agency is notified.
• CPTs are effective in medical facilities & churches.
Understanding the Intervention Process:
Investigation & Assessment
• Intake worker meets with the child & his/her family to assess
risk, protective factors, and impact of disclosure on stability of
the family
• If the report is substantiated, the worker identifies goals and
strategies for the family
• If unsubstantiated, the case is referred or closed
• Treatment planning and services begins
• Must evaluate the family’s progress and revise service plan as
necessary
Understanding the Intervention Process:
Family Reactions & Home Visiting
• The family is in a state of crisis, disequilibrium, when
disclosure takes place, experiencing fear: fear of authority,
fear of having the child removed, the fear of helplessness.
• Responses (defense mechanisms) to fear: denial, projection,
blaming the system, antagonism towards social services, or
withdrawal.
• Workers must evaluate the family’s strengths too.
• Home visitation allows assessment, but also requires
additional sensitivity and interviewing skills.
Assessing Risk and Protective
Factors

Childhood Trauma in the Black Community.pptxcobbscecelia
The document discusses childhood trauma experienced by Black children and its causes. It notes that Black children commonly experience racial trauma, community violence, family instability, and educational disparities. Approximately 70% experience racism or discrimination, and Black youth are more likely to experience adverse childhood experiences than their white peers. Systemic racism, lack of access to culturally competent mental health services, and limited safe community spaces often force Black children into environments where trauma is exposed. Solutions proposed include increasing access to culturally competent care, empowering families, addressing economic and housing instability, and advocating for trauma-informed policies and systems.
