    The Health and Well-Being of Children from the Perspective of Social and Environmental Health Policy Frederica Perera Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2012 © 2012 Frederica Perera All rights reserved ABSTRACT The Health and Well-Being of Children from the Perspective of Social and Environmental Health Policy Frederica Perera Environmental health is an integral component of public health and, therefore, of social welfare. Yet both social and environmental health scientists have failed to adequately consider the mutual benefits of --and synergism between-- environmental and social policies aimed at the protection of the health and well-being of children. The emerging scientific evidence that social and physical/chemical “toxicants” interact to cause childhood illness and impair children’s development is providing new impetus to the integration of these disciplines. Child labor reform in the late 19th century can be seen as a milestone in the translation of science to policy. For the first time, scientific recognition of children’s biological and psychological vulnerability was a major factor in shaping public policy. Yet the role of science as a force in shaping the perception of the value of the child and as a driver of reform during this period has not been widely recognized. The first paper, entitled “The Role of Science in Child Labor Reform in the Early Progressive Era (1870-1900)”, describes how the growing understanding of physicians, toxicologists, sociologists, and psychologists that childhood was a biologically vulnerable period of life informed progressive reformers who used this knowledge, along with socio-economic, cultural and moral arguments, to advocate for reform.

INTRODUCTION More and more children are entering courtrooms as a result of the dramatic increase in reports of child abuse and neglect.' Gen- erally, these cases would be addressed within the juvenile court process.2 However, in cases of alleged child sexual abuse, criminal charges may also be filed against the alleged offender. This has resulted in the appearance of children as victims and witnesses of crime in open and public courtrooms.3 This article examines data regarding the type of clinical and legal interventions that can be effective in professionals' work with alleged child sexual abuse victims.

    E LAINE W HITFIELD S HARP, TLC ‘98 This is part of a book currently being written by Elaine Whitfield Sharp. Copyright by Elaine Whitfield Sharp, July 2004. Permission to publish given to The Warrior. Evil events are rarely committed to paper. The history of child abuse inherent- ly involves pain inflicted in the dark and behind closed doors, providing us with only the barest of facts. We know that royal children were poisoned and mur- dered for convenience or for their crowns and that the ancient Greeks dis- posed of handicapped children at birth. We hear words like “beaten,” “burned,” “raped,” and “exploited,” but these do little to reveal the enormous tragedies for which they are mere codes. Today, there is a vast infrastructure of child protective services (CPS) in America. It is funded by billions of federal and state tax dollars. History has been turned on its head. Instead of children being ‘seen and not heard,’ or having no right of survival at birth, children are now revered as precious, as our modern day mocking birds. The entire ‘village’ is involved in their protection and welfare. 28 THE WARRIOR • Fall 2004 welling in the village are child protective services (CPS) THE PRISM OF THE PAST: professionals, pediatricians and others committed to THE ALARMING HISTORY OF CHILD ABUSE stomping out child abuse.

  • Animal Print: the Literary Production of Humane America by Alyssa
    Animal Print: The Literary Production of Humane America by Alyssa Chen Walker A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (American Culture) in the University of Michigan 2013 Doctoral Committee: Professor June Howard, Chair Professor Philip J. Deloria Professor Emerita Anne C. Herrmann Associate Professor Susan Scott Parrish © Alyssa Chen Walker 2013 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I am grateful to the following people whose wisdom, creativity, and generosity have shaped this work (and me) so much for the better. June Howard’s influence on this project extends far back, long before I matriculated at The University of Michigan or knew her as anything other than a literary voice to which I was drawn. This project was inspired by June, and (for so many reasons) it could not have been completed without her. The best moments in it are the product of her wise counsel, fierce optimism, and timely rallying-cry of “Onward!” In theorizing the humane, I have been struck by how fully Anne Herrmann embodies all the good that this term denotes. To be taught by one who poses difficult questions not merely to challenge but to transform has been a treasured gift bequeathed by a supremely humane mentor. I am deeply grateful to Phil Deloria for taking my interest in animals seriously from the very start and for encouraging me to “be myself” (even when doing so took us both into the academically dubious realm of feline detection). By perfectly modeling and generously supporting creative risk-taking, Phil has made joy a full and valid part of my intellectual endeavors.

  • The Maltreatment of Children from a Historical Perspective
    Chapter 1 The Maltreatment of Children from a Historical Perspective Learning Objectives altreatment of children is deeply entwined with historical values and per- spectives. The concept of child maltreatment has been defined and rede- Mfined throughout history. Society is slowly evolving from viewing children as property, subject to the whims of the family and society, to at least recognizing that children may have rights of their own. Each period in history—as well as each cul- ture—has a concept of how children should be treated. CHILDREN AS PROPERTY Early in history, children were seen as the property of their families—usually headed and ruled by fathers. Children looked to their fathers for their very existence. Fathers had the right to determine not only the manner in which their child was cared for but also if the child were to live or die. Issues of Life and Death Infanticide, or the killing of infants and young children, has occurred since early times. The Bible cites Abraham’s intention to sacrifice his son, Isaac, to God. In early Rome, the father was given complete power to kill, abandon, or even sell his child. In Greek legend, Oedipus was doomed to death until he was rescued by a family retainer. In Hawaii, China, and Japan, many female and disabled children were killed to maintain a strong race without overpopulation. Infanticide was practiced for many reasons. Like the Hawaiians, Chinese, and Japanese, some cultures saw the practice of infanticide as a means of controlling and regulating the population so that society’s resources could be expended on the stron- gest and most valued.

  • Rettner-Collaboration Betw. Soc Work and Animal Welfare .Pdf
    Beyond Mary Ellen Wilson: The Necessity for Collaboration between Social Workers and Animal Welfare Personnel Presented by: Meredith A. Rettner [email protected] Presented on April 12, 2013 Child protection services grew out of the early animal welfare movement. Mary Ellen Wilson serves as a poster-child for child welfare organizations. Her memory inspires the inner-connectedness of the animal welfare and child welfare fields. (Watkins, 1990) In the 1870‟s Mary-Ellen Wilson suffered years of physical and emotional abuse at the hands of her foster parents (Ascione, 2005). No child protection agencies were in existence. Etta Wheeler, a female church representative who was familiar with Wilson‟s plight, sought the help of Henry Bergh, the founder of the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA). Bergh was reluctant to risk his organization, whose original purpose was to ensure the health of livestock and workhorses, on a non-animal. Wheeler convinced Bergh that Wilson‟s case deserved attention because Wilson was “a member of the animal kingdom” (Watkins, 1990; American Humane Association). • Wilson‟s case inspired Bergh and his business partners to start the first US children‟s welfare organization, the New York Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children (NYSPCC) (Carlisle-Frank and Flanagan, 2006; Halpern, 1999). • By 1919, there were 247 state and local humane societies that focused on children or animals (Ascione, 2005). Picture credit: Nationallinkcoalition.org Myth: “Social workers care about people. If you want to help animals, then you probably don‟t care enough about people to be a good social worker.” Reality: The patterns, rituals, and objects of the social work profession establish a normative framework of care that resides within a false dichotomy between care for humans and care for animals.

The phenomenon of child abuse and maltreatment is deeply rooted in our cultural and religious history. It is as old as civilization itself. Yet the fact of child abuse has remained largely hidden and suppressed. Reform movements that have pointed out the horrors being committed upon children and attempted to provide some protection have occurred at intervals, but in time the shocking facts of mistreatment seem always to have been avoided or forgotten.

Veronica Lockett Texas State University – San Marcos School of Social Work Acknowledgments This thesis would not have been possible without the input of the research participants who so willingly spoke about their experiences as alumnus of the foster care system and as parents. Their responses were invaluable, as they will educate individuals who do not know this experience. A debt of gratitude is also offered to the following individuals: Dr. Sally Hill-Jones for her guidance, expertise, and patience; Dr. Diane Pape, professor in the College of Education; Dr. Donald Bauman, CAPTA Evaluation Lead for the Department of Family and Protective Services for his knowledge and expertise in research and reporting; and Ms. Jennifer Heideman, and Ms. Julie Shores for editing. Last, but most certainly not least, I thank Professor Sarah Buel, of the University Of Texas School of Law, for her outside opinion. I also want to thank Ms. Raney M.
