The approach used was geographic information systems (GIS) to target specific neighborhoods characterized as needing timely interventions. GIS is a technological sub-specialty and form of spatial cartography allowing data to be stored, manipulated, and visually displayed. This article focuses on how social workers can apply such approaches to enhance their communities and neighborhood residents. We offer a case study of a hate crimes project in Canada that brought together university researchers and a local police service into a research project, designed to identify specific neighborhood places where hate crimes were occurring. We propose that community social workers can form meaningful partnerships with technology experts and leverage this relationship into an expanded practice skill with tangible improvements to the communities they work with.","PeriodicalId":46115,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF TECHNOLOGY IN HUMAN SERVICES","volume":"40 1","pages":"201 - 229"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2021-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/15228835.2021.1931635","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42213682","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Predictive methods can rapidly refer potentially chronic shelter users to housing but also sometimes incorrectly identify individuals who will not become chronic (false positives). We use shelter access histories to demonstrate that these false positives are often still good candidates for housing. Using this approach, we compare a simple threshold method for predicting chronic homelessness to the more complex logistic regression and neural network algorithms. While traditional binary classification performance metrics show that the machine learning algorithms perform better than the threshold technique, an examination of the shelter access histories of the cohorts identified by the three algorithms show that they select groups with very similar characteristics. This has important implications for resource constrained not-for-profit organizations since the threshold technique can be implemented using much simpler information technology infrastructure than the machine learning algorithms.","PeriodicalId":46115,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF TECHNOLOGY IN HUMAN SERVICES","volume":"40 1","pages":"122 - 133"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2021-05-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49633354","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A framework that can guide the development and implementation of VR training approaches in human services is needed if the promise of VR is to be realized. Toward this end, we provide design and development recommendations originating from work creating two VR training applications for the child welfare workforce. Our focus is on the training and practice of skills. We begin by providing a brief overview of VR training and the need for effective skills training approaches. Next, orienting information about the two applications is provided. Then, we discuss areas we believe need to be addressed to develop effective VR skills training approaches; namely, incorporating evidence-based learning theories, gaining and maintaining learner engagement using motivational strategies, and creating collaborative technology development teams. The article concludes with a discussion regarding ethical issues that should be considered when developing technology that will be used for training in human services.","PeriodicalId":46115,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF TECHNOLOGY IN HUMAN SERVICES","volume":"39 1","pages":"295 - 313"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2021-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/15228835.2021.1915928","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43468025","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One such system of business appropriating is in the information technology and management space, which can help nonprofits operate efficiently in a cloud environment. There is a need for scholarly work devoted to understanding cloud-based control and management within nonprofit organization systems and environments. Given the dearth of exploratory work, this study examines how cloud management platforms are used in nonprofits and considers how they influence operations and nonprofit business models. Findings reveal that cloud management platforms help nonprofits create or optimize operations and improve internal and external relationships with stakeholders, often impacting business strategy by mission fulfillment and program needs. Recommendations for consideration of cloud management platforms are made based on criteria comparison of nonprofit purpose, structure, size, and data management needs.","PeriodicalId":46115,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF TECHNOLOGY IN HUMAN SERVICES","volume":"39 1","pages":"405 - 425"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2021-05-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/15228835.2021.1920556","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48695402","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, analyzing open-ended responses using human coders is labor-intensive. Structural topic modeling (STM) is a text mining method that discover topics from textual data. We demonstrate the use of STM to analyze open-ended survey responses to understand how parents coped during the COVID-19 lock-down in Singapore. We administered online surveys to 199 parents in Singapore during the COVID-19 lock-down. To show a STM analysis, we demonstrated a workflow that includes steps in data preprocessing, model estimation, model selection, and model interpretation. An 18-topic model best fit the data based on model diagnostics and researchers’ expertise. Prevalent coping methods described by respondents include “Spousal Support,” “Routines/Schedules,” and “Managing Expectations.” Topic prevalence for some topics varied with respondents’ levels of parenting stress and whether parents were fathers or mothers. STM offers an efficient, valid, and replicable way to analyze textual data such as open-ended survey responses and case notes that can complement researchers’ knowledge and skills. STM can be used as part of a multistage research process or to support other analyses such as clarifying quantitative findings and identifying preliminary themes from qualitative data.
