Child Care Institutions

The Nation’s development depends on the development of children. Child must be encouraged to live in a family environment which gives an atmosphere of happiness, understanding, love, affection and emotional support for development of child’s personality. The growth, development and personality of children is depended on the environment where the children grown up. Children are being institutionalized with various reasons such as destitution due to death of parents, poverty, inability of parents, unconducive family environment and health issues. As the children are living in the institutions away from their parents, it effects on physical, psychological and emotional development of children. The Government mandated child care institutions to maintain the minimum standards for providing effective rehabilitation services for children in need of care and protection. The child care institutions were managed by Government and Non-Government Organisations. Many studies have been conducted to see the services provided by child care institutions really meeting the needs of the children for their development to attain their goals and mainstreaming in the society.

This chapter considers how the Home for Colored Children (HCC) recorded a version of its founding story that traces the genesis of the institution to a state law. Several succeeding versions of this tale cite the role of legislation in prompting the formation of a new institution for African Americans, suggesting that the state acted as a progressive agent, forcing changes in the handling of all dependent children. While this version of HCC's founding story is not entirely accurate, it contains an essential truth: progressive reform ideas were starting to circulate in this period and had real impact on the development of child care institutions. The story locates the impetus for change outside of the orphanage founders themselves, placing it instead on progressives working through the government to enact new state laws regulating child welfare.

<p>Children are the backbone and future generation of the society and also preserve the societal culture and traditions of the society. Due to various reasons some children who are extremely poor, orphan, abandoned, sexually victimized children or neglected, children have to live without their families and they grow up in Child Care Institution (CCI). It is a temporarily organized residential care for children where alternative care is provided who are in need of care and protection. Institutionalization refers to the process of embedding something within an organization, social system or society as a whole. It aims to integrate fundamental values and objectives into the organization's culture and structure. Separation from the home or family environment, deprivation of parental care, love, affection, warmth, security, acceptance and discipline during childhood and adolescence may disrupt their normal development. The present study was conducted to study the social adjustment of these institutionalized children under the age group of 14 to 18 years. The sample was taken from child care institutions run by the Government of Assam and NGO of Assam. Total of 100 children was taken (50 male and 50 female). The adjustment Inventory for school student Developed by Sinha and Singh (1993) was used for the purpose. Descriptive statistics of social adjustment indicates low social stability among institutionalised children. Result revealed a significant difference between male and female in case of social adjustment. However, the result needs to be verified by using another test too. </p>

Child Care Facilities

There are four important, interrelated issues in child-care policy, on which economists can make contributions. One is the adequacy of the supply of "affordable" child care. A second is the proper role of government, if any, in providing or paying for child care. A third is whether the public could afford to have the government provide child care, assuming that such provision was deemed appropriate and desirable. A fourth is the standards of quality that should be mandated by the government for federal or private-sector child-care facilities. The standard literature tends to be scant on all of these topics.1,2 Economists are seldom unanimous in their opinions, and they certainly do not agree on child-care issues. The now-sizeable school of economists led by Milton Friedman, whose members have staffed the administrations of the last two US presidents, believe that, with very few exceptions, government interventions into the economic functioning of the citizens and their businesses are pernicious. Economists faithful to this tradition argue that parents should buy child care out of their own incomes from nongovernmental providers and that those providers should be regulated minimally if at all. An opposing point of view is that child care is different in important ways from such commodities as shoes and strawberries. Children are the direct consumers of child care, and government intervention in protection of their interests is justified because they lack abilities that can be assumed to reside in the usual participants in the economy. Further, child care provided by or subsidized by government is an indispensable ingredient of any program aimed at bringing about the rescue of the 20% of American children who are officially designated as poor, who are living in conditions that should not be tolerated by a rich and civilized country.1

The foodbank network The Trussell Trust does not only give emergency food supplies, but also offers emotional support and a growing range of practical projects via the More Than Food programme to help tackle poverty-related issues. The mission is to bring communities together to end hunger and poverty in the UK by providing compassionate, practical help while challenging injustice. This chapter details the different programmes The Trussell Trust have devised and thereby examines some external challenges the London network faces. The chapter concludes that poverty and hunger are often amplified through social isolation. It suggests that more work needs to be done in order to increase collaboration across sectors, and specifically between the government, third sector, and businesses. There is increased need for more community life, and the fostering of social relations appears ever greater.

Pemerintah melalui DPRM Ristekdikti mendorong perguruan tinggi untuk menumbuhkembangkan jiwa wirausaha mahasiswa. Hal ini sangat relevan dengan tagline Universitas Muria Kudus (UMK) yang mengusung motto �Santun, Cerdas dan Berjiwa Wirausaha� sehingga diharapkan lulusan UMK nantinya mandiri menciptakan lapangan kerja sendiri. PPK ini dapat menyiapkan mahasiswa agar mandiri secara finansial sebelum mereka lulus, sehingga tidak bergantung pada pekerjaan � pekerjaan yang disediakan oleh pemerintah maupun dunia industri. Tujuan dari program PPK adalah menghasilkan wirausahawan baru. Pada tahun 2019 terwujud 5 usaha baru yang dijalankan oleh 20 mahasiswa dan alumni dari prodi PBI, Manajemen Bisnis, Teknik Mesin dan Agroteknologi. Metode pelaksanaan kegiatan ini menggunakan teknik coaching & mentoring. Usaha � usaha yang dirintis oleh tenant tersebut adalah budidaya adenium, budidaya jamur tiram, angkringan kopi SEKOPPI, angkringan sushi dan steak, serta sablon. Keberhasilan program ini dipengaruhi oleh banyak faktor, baik faktor pendamping dalam hal ini tim pengabdi maupun faktor mahasiswa. Faktor mahasiswa diantaranya adanya spirit yang lahir dari lingkungan keluarga yang juga memiliki usaha, transformasi nilai yang dilakukan secara akumulatif dalam keluarga dan lingkungan yang mendukung serta adanya bakat yang memungkinkan mahasiswa mudah menerima motivasi untuk melakukan kegiatan yang berorientasi pada munculnya kreativitas dan atau inovasi sebagai ciri utama wirausaha.�Entrepreneurship Development Program (PPK) issued by the Ristekdikti DPRM offers more opportunities for the academic community in higher education to foster entrepreneurial spirit for students in particular. This is very relevant to Universitas Muria Kudus (UMK)�s tagline, "Polite, smart and entrepreneurial". UMK graduates are expected to independently create their own jobs, therefore they will not depend on jobs provided by the government or the industry. PPK aims at creating students to be financially independent as entrepreneurs. In the first year, 2019 PPK program yielded 5 new business tenants among 20 tenants consisting students and alumni of English Education Department, Business Management, Agriculture, and Mechanical Engineering department. To run the program, the methods used were coaching and mentoring. �The businesses which are established by the tenants are Adenium farm, oyster mushroom farm, SEKOPPI coffee shop, sushi and steak, and screen printing. The success of this program is influenced by many factors, both the accompanying factors in this case the service team and student factors. Student factors include the presence of a spirit that is born from a family environment that also has a business, the transformation of values carried out accumulatively in the family and a supportive environment and the talent that allows students to easily receive motivation to carry out activities oriented to the emergence of creativity and or innovation as the main characteristic of entrepreneurship. The program which is arranged must be adjusted to the students� characteristics in the millennium era by maximizing the use of information technology and implemented with an appropriate approach. This conclusion was obtained from observations during the program.

This study is based on the biosynthesis of laccase enzyme from fungi Trichoderma viride and its exploitation in biodegradation of polyethylene using Laccase mediator system (LMS -Laccase + 1-HBT) in Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) and in biodegradation of textile industrial effluent dyes. In different parts of our lifespan we have seen the numerous types of plastics are getting degraded by various methods, still the average time to completely degrade a plastic bottle is at least 450 years.Similarly industry produces over 3.6 thousand individual textile dyes today and utilizes more than 8000 toxic chemicals in numerous methods for textile manufacture comprising dyeing and printing. As polyethylene and textile industrial effluent dyes are causing severe hazardous effect on environment and health issues in all kind of living organisms, it is necessary to degrade plastics and textile industrial effluent dyes in rapid way. Recently researchers have come up with an idea of degrading plastic and textile industrial effluent dyes with the help of microorganisms and enzymes much faster than normal rate. The Laccase enzyme extracted was tested for its optimum temperature and pH. Lowry’s method is used for protein estimation. A control and sample LDPE was subjected to LMS. The tensile strength and elongation of the sample was less than that of the control after 5 days of treatment. This study showed that laccase together with 1-HBT helps to biodegrade polyethylene. The purified laccase enzyme was used for the pretreatment assay and post treatment assay. The Laccase degrades certain reactive dyes like Congo red, Acid Red, Methylene Blue, Brilliant Blue, Metallic Blue and Black. Thus recommends the application of laccase in textile dye colour removal (bioremediation).
