In-depth interviews were conducted with n = 6 service staff and volunteers recruited from community food assistance agencies in one urban neighborhood to examine major challenges, facilitators, and promising approaches to reduce food insecurity. Data was analyzed using MAXQDA using systematic content analysis. Poverty and system fragmentation at organizational and community/family levels were identified as root causes of food insecurity. Providers shared existing and recommended change efforts, including collaboration between community organizations and practices to increase community buy-in. Findings outline critical advancements in future food insecurity research with attention to community strengths and facilitating factors to buffer the effects of major challenges on organizations, communities, and families.","PeriodicalId":46944,"journal":{"name":"Social Work in Public Health","volume":" ","pages":"1-17"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-07-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144620872","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In disasters, social work includes interventions aimed at providing practical support and psychosocial support services. In this context, the study examines post-disaster psychosocial support services in Türkiye, following a flood case, from a social work perspective and through a qualitative approach. The participant group consists of 24 adults affected by the disaster, showing diversity in terms of age, socioeconomic status, and gender. In-depth interviews conducted with the participants were subjected to thematic analysis, generating information about the content of the psychosocial support services, their effectiveness, and how a more effective aid-support model should be structured. The research results indicate that all needs were considered after the disaster, and psychosocial support services contributed to feelings of trust and relief. However, participants' critiques revealed that these services need improvement. It was found that psychosocial support services were limited to basic, widespread, and urgent needs, were shorter in duration than required, failed to ensure public participation, and were inadequate in resource development and establishing connections. The research concluded that post-disaster psychosocial support services in Türkiye should be developed with a more layered model, considering local agency, and tailored to the specific problems of specialized groups and clients.","PeriodicalId":46944,"journal":{"name":"Social Work in Public Health","volume":" ","pages":"1-15"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-06-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144209871","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Disasters affect public health. Enhancing global communication networks, conducting disaster awareness studies, and developing disaster prevention and warning systems are essential for combating disasters. The competency and knowledge of professionals involved in disaster management are crucial, with social workers playing a critical role in both combating and responding to such crises. Integrating multidimensional disaster awareness into undergraduate education is a key strategy within Türkiye's disaster prevention policies. This study assessed the disaster awareness and attitudes of senior social work students in Ankara, engaging 300 undergraduate participants. The findings indicated that female students exhibited greater disaster awareness, and that prior disaster experiences positively influenced both awareness levels and the willingness to join crisis intervention teams. Participation in first aid training significantly enhanced disaster-related attitudes, with those who experienced loss in disasters reporting higher cognitive, affective, and behavioral scores than those who did not. Furthermore, training in psychosocial support positively impacted disaster awareness. The results underscore the need to refine undergraduate social work education to align with national disaster policies. The study is expected to contribute to the social work literature both nationally and internationally.","PeriodicalId":46944,"journal":{"name":"Social Work in Public Health","volume":" ","pages":"1-14"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-05-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144133062","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The health belief model served as a guide for the study's qualitative exploratory research design. Using a combination of purposive and availability sampling strategies, a sample of 20 women participants with varying ages (23-36 years) were selected from 10 villages. The findings revealed that participants have limited knowledge of cervical cancer, with misconceptions and cultural beliefs influencing their understanding. The findings identified factors contributing to the lack of knowledge, including limited access to information and resources, fear, social disapproval, and financial constraints resulting from poverty. The findings also revealed that lack of knowledge has detrimental effects on women's mental, psychological, and social lives, including their relationships with friends and family. In addition, education, awareness campaigns, collaboration with medical personnel, and community engagements were effective strategies to enhance knowledge and awareness of cervical cancer programs among women. The study revealed that the findings imply social work. However, the study recommended that future investigations should consider a larger, more diverse sample to validate these findings and explore strategies to improve knowledge and awareness of cervical cancer among women in Nigeria.","PeriodicalId":46944,"journal":{"name":"Social Work in Public Health","volume":" ","pages":"216-231"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143426384","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
