Who will save the children from Sexual violence, Addiction and Domestic violence (SAD)? Using the analogy of superheroes battling villains to save children who have been impacted by the SAD pandemic, this book takes you on an adventure as the author explores three major case scenarios where victories have been won and children have been rescued. With the help of their social worker and other superheroes in various social systems, these adventures show that together we can make a positive difference in the lives of children who are affected by the SAD pandemic. Using the systems theory model, this book explores how superheroes from the micro level (the home environment), the mezzo level (the village), and the macro level (policymakers) answer the call, "Who will save the children?"
Autorenporträt
Kareen has a Master of Social Work (MSW) degree and is a qualified and registered social worker with over thirteen years experience working in Manitoba's child welfare system. Kareen can identify with the concept of the village raising the child based on her own experience of being raised by her neighbour during her teenage years. Born in one of the poor inner-city communities in Kingston, Jamaica, Kareen knows what it is like to live in a community where people take care of each other's children as they would take care of their own children. Kareen spent her early childhood with her mother and father and then lived with her neighbour and her neighbour's husband throughout her adolescent years. Kareen had both her biological grandmother and aunties and also community "grandmas" and "aunties" who shaped and moulded her into the woman she has become: a social worker with a heart and passion to love and care for children and their families.
