摘要

智力残疾成人的社会网络往往很小,可能仅限于家庭、受薪工作人员和其他残疾人。本研究探讨了六名加入主流休闲俱乐部或成为当地志愿者的个人的社会包容。方法采用定性干预研究方法,对当地的联络人、俱乐部/组织的现有成员提供结构化的支持和教育,这些成员为智障新成员提供一对一的支持。4个月后,进行定性访谈,探讨6名残疾参与者的经历。数据采用内容分析法进行分析。个人加入主流休闲俱乐部或志愿服务,与自然的支持者,创造机会结交新朋友和扩大社会网络。根据个人目标/兴趣,找到当地的联系人,并有机会分享志愿服务或休闲活动,这是在居住地附近结识新朋友的关键。确定了参与的障碍和促进因素。结论智力残疾成人成为志愿者或加入主流休闲俱乐部有可能增加他们社区的社会融入机会。研究对政策和实践的影响。探讨了进一步研究的建议。本研究开发的重要社会角色清单为寻找社会角色提供了一个工具。

Social Inclusion Through Making Neighbourhood Connections: Experiences of Older Adults With Intellectual Disabilities of Local Volunteering and Leisure, Facilitated by Local Connectors

Social Inclusion Through Making Neighbourhood Connections: Experiences of Older Adults With Intellectual Disabilities of Local Volunteering and Leisure, Facilitated by Local Connectors

Background

The social networks of adults with intellectual disabilities are often small and may be limited to family, paid staff and others with disabilities. This study explored the social inclusion of six individuals who joined mainstream leisure clubs or became local volunteers.

Method

This qualitative intervention study provided structured support and education to local connectors, existing members of clubs/organisations who provided one-to-one support to new members with intellectual disabilities. After 4 months, qualitative interviews were conducted to explore the experiences of the six participants with disability. Data were analysed using content analysis.

Findings

Individuals joining mainstream leisure clubs or volunteering, with natural supporters, creates opportunities for making new acquaintances and expanding social networks. Finding local connectors and opportunities for shared volunteering or leisure activities based on personal goals/interests are key to individuals forming new acquaintances close to where they live. Barriers and facilitators to participation are identified.

Conclusions

Adults with intellectual disabilities becoming volunteers or joining mainstream leisure clubs has the potential to lead to enhanced opportunities for social inclusion in their neighbourhoods. Implications for policy and practice are examined. Recommendations for further research are explored. A Valued Social Role Checklist developed from this study offers a tool when sourcing social roles.
