Parents with disabilities experience discrimination within the child welfare, family law, and adoption and foster care systems. In response, there have been increasing calls for states to pass legislation prohibiting discrimination against parents with disabilities, and as of 2020, 28 states have passed or are considering such legislation. This qualitative study explored the perspectives of 19 advocates, attorneys, and legislators on barriers and solutions for passing legislation to protect the rights of parents with disabilities. Participants identified three barriers: (a) legislators’ pejorative attitudes toward parents with disabilities, (b) external opposition, and (c) legislative barriers. Participants also identified eight solutions: (a) cross-disability advocacy, (b) education, (c) relationship-building, (d) bipartisanship, (e) support from state and national organizations, (f) strong sponsors, (g) incrementalism, and (h) model legislation. Study findings should help to inform ongoing legislative advocacy to protect the rights of parents with disabilities.

This article presents the generalization of the historical and institutional patterns of development of a family as a complex multifunctional diffuse type of organization. Family’s main functions (social, cultural, economic and ideological) and qualitative characteristics (subject of law, value of family social capital, dynastic continuity of traditions, welfare, family property’s dimension, consolidation of family power, and trust within family relations) are revealed. The research defined the outline and consequences of a formed institutional fracture (diametrical change of development trajectory). To reduce this fracture, the measures are suggested, which consist of refinement of rights and obligations of a family and its members as a subject, based on juridical reinforcement of a specific type of legal entity.

Every family would want a clean and healthy environment. The level of achieving social welfare can also be passed through behaviors that reflect cleanliness of the environment. This also applies to scavenger families in Babarsari's shanties. In this context, the research was conducted in Babarsari's shanties in the type of field research and was descriptive qualitative in nature. Those who work as scavengers do not recognize clean and healthy living behaviors or PHBS. They are used to environmental life which can be said to not support the survival of their children. An environment full of garbage has become their usual sight. To analyze PHBS, Abraham Maslow's theory of Hirearki's theory of Human Needs is used. The results of this study are that those scavenger families do not have the awareness of the importance of basic needs, such as clean and healthy life behavior or PHBS.Keywords: Social Welfare, Family, Scavenger, Healthy Living Behaviors

<p>The relationship between the quality of life and social welfare is of shared taxonomy, therefore it is difficult to define unambiguously. It is hard to imagine social welfare without the quality of life, but in order to put the quality of life into practice, we need the context of social welfare. For children’s social welfare, family and the way it creates quality of life is central. However, we lack instruments to evaluate children’s quality of life with family-focused approach. For  that purpose, we introduce KIDSCREEN52 survey with 1763 children (aged 8-18 years old) and 1564 parents. Moreover, we raise the<br />question of ecological validity, firstly, because there is a need to develop measurements that are closer to real life situations, in order to productively contribute to the ensuring of children’s social welfare.</p>

This chapter looks at the views of family members who have been involved in child welfare family group conferences (FGCs). FGCs originate in New Zealand from roots that are firmly embedded within service-user rights and empowerment. Therefore, it is not surprising that FGC projects have developed strategies for involving families in developing services. At present, there are pockets of good practice in terms of service-user involvement. However, it must be acknowledged that service-user involvement in all areas of social care remains a pipe dream for many reasons, which include scarce resources in terms of staff and financial commitments. Nevertheless, it is recommended for new and established projects to continue to evaluate service-user experiences of FGCs and to use these evaluations to enhance provision, and to give FGC service users the opportunity to contribute to FGC training.

Family is the basis of public welfare. Family welfare determine the children development. Indonesia government ensure family and child welfare of their citizen by applying Child Rights Convention and strengthen some policies. Indonesia government, through Ministry of Social, also arranged PKSA/ Children Welfare Program. This program classify vulnerable child into five cluster, and reach them by three ways: integrated cash aid, social workers, and access to social services. This program targeted no less than 4.3 million children in all region. Though this program were succesfully implemented, but still needed some improvement, such as involvement of local government, recruitment of social workers, and more establishment of LKSA with good facilities and services. PKSA should also be financially sustainable that can reach more children from many families with its whole services.
