There has been limited research theorizing how domestic and sexual violence (DV/SA) organizations use social media in their work with youth. Using thematic content analysis, this study interviews DV/SA (n = 35) staff to explore the role of social media in organizational settings. Results indicate that social media is used to advance organizational functionality including publicizing services, fundraising, and youth engagement. There is limited use of movement-oriented hashtags and numerous barriers to social media optimization. This work addresses strategies for expanding social media usage in DV/SA organizations.","PeriodicalId":46385,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Community Practice","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2021-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44279479","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 variety of digital tools (e.g., social media, crowdsourcing, video conferencing) were used to coordinate people/resources, raise funds, create connections, and educate others. Findings encourage digital organizing to meet tangible and intangible needs when formal systems fail, while carefully avoiding reifying inequities based on differential access to technology.","PeriodicalId":46385,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Community Practice","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2021-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46147585","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}

Collectively, they offer a gentle nudge for our profession to take a more proactive role in integrating digital technologies in meaningful ways and advocating for digital justice. The social work profession is at a critical crossroads where we can take a proactive role in influencing the ethical use of digital technologies to benefit social good and advance social change, rather than be reactive to the whims of technology companies and developers that thus far, have dictated the rules of digital engagement and participation.","PeriodicalId":46385,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Community Practice","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2021-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43906805","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}

With the growing popularity of digital and social applications, interest has grown in using digital technology to tackle the challenges facing local communities. Nationwide platforms such as the social networking site Nextdoor or the local news site EveryBlock have drawn considerable attention from the mass media and even local governments as platforms to communicate with and engage citizens. Digital technologies have also been utilized to increase civic engagement (Chen et al., 2012), and mobilize people to solve local issues (Farnham et al., 2015). Digital and social technologies can also foster community engagement, including increasing social capital and connections (Hampton & Wellman, 2003; Kavanaugh & Patterson, 2001). However, these positive outcomes have less frequently benefitted communities of color, particularly young people. Neighborhood mobile apps have sometimes caused harm through racial profiling. Residents in marginalized communities are also impacted by the digital divide (Nielson, 2006) and low-income youth face civic opportunity gaps (Conner & Slattery, 2014). The use of digital technology has also risen in social work, including websites, cell phones, and virtual reality programs designed to understand social problems and develop interventions (Chan & Holosko, 2016). The use of digital technology in assessment and intervention in direct social work practice has led to more targeted services, provided an opportunity for immediate feedback, and allowed social workers to serve individuals who were not previously able to access services (Bender et al., 2014; Berzin et al., 2015; Ramsey & Montgomery, 2014). Despite the promise of using digital technology to improve social work practice, there has been less emphasis on designing mobile and online technology for community social work interventions, particularly engaging youth (Chan & Holosko, 2016).

Yet, research partnerships generally suffer from a lack of theoretical foundations. This scoping review connects relationality – a founding ontological concept in the Indigenous world – to the importance of relational dynamics in partnership projects. I suggest that the coming together of researchers, professionals, and communities occurs in a partnership space, a space of relationality in Indigenous contexts.

Smith","doi":"10.1080/10705422.2021.1959840","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/10705422.2021.1959840","url":null,"abstract":"We write this editorial as the world begins to reopen with the administration of 3.63 billion doses of COVID-19 vaccines in more than 214 countries and territories around the globe. At the time of this writing, 1 billion or 12.9% of the world’s population have been fully vaccinated (Our World in Data, 2021). Although these are hopeful developments, we have not quite turned the corner on the pandemic as cases continue to climb. There are more than 191.1 million confirmed cases and 4.1 million deaths worldwide (Johns Hopkins Coronavirus Resource Center, 2021). The U.S. continues to lead all countries with total confirmed cases and deaths at 34.1 million and 609,000, respectively, but India and Brazil do not trail far behind. Further, countries around the world are bracing for a third, fourth or fifth wave of the pandemic with the spread of highly infectious COVID-19 variants. We also write as the United States nears the 6-month mark of the Biden administration and the country shows fleeting glimpses of recovery from the pandemic and the past four years of political turmoil. While there are signs that recovery may be on the horizon, the country is still reeling from the toll of the COVID-19 pandemic and the previous administration on the physical and mental well-being of the population as well as the economic health and vitality of the nation. Nonetheless the unevenness of the economic recovery is marked (CNN Business, n.d.). Despite gains in overall employment, the United States has 7.3 million fewer jobs now than the country had before the start of the pandemic (Congressional Research Services, 2021). The Department of Labor estimates more than 9.5 million U.S. workers lost their jobs during the COVID-19 pandemic (Bureau of Labor Statistics, 2021), leading to a record 14.8% unemployment rate in April 2020. Although the overall unemployment rate in June 2021 was markedly lower (5.9%), unemployment remains higher than the pre-COVID rate of 3.5% (Congressional Research Services, 2021). Unemployment continues to be higher among African American and Latino workers – 9.2% and 7.4%, respectively, underscoring the significantly slower jobs recovery experienced by minority workers (Bureau of Labor Statistics, 2021). These rates are exacerbated by the anticipated permanent loss of approximately 3 million jobs in the leisure and hospitality as well as retail sectors of the economy where African American and Latino workers are disproportionately employed. The long-term unemployed – those who have been unemployed for six months or more – now total 4.0 million and are 2.9 million more than prior to the pandemic (Bureau of Labor Statistics, 2021).
