frontline worker responses to domestic violence disclosure in Public Welfare offices
Social Work, 2010Co-Authors: Taryn Lindhorst, Erin A Casey, Marcia K MeyersAbstract:Although substantial numbers of women seeking Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) report domestic violence, few receive mandated services through the Family Violence Option (FVO). This study used transcripts of interviews between Welfare caseworkers and their clients to identify and classify the responses made by workers to client disclosures of abuse and to assess the match or mismatch of these responses with FVO policy requirements. Only 22 of 782 client interviews involved the disclosure of abuse to the Welfare caseworker. A typology of worker responses was created, from least to most engaged. This typology shows that only half of those who disclosed abuse received assistance from the Welfare worker, despite policy mandates that clients receive information on TANF waivers and community resources. This study suggests that problems with implementation of the FVO reflect a systemic reluctance to address issues of violence with women rather than problems of individual workers. Language: en

screening for domestic violence in Public Welfare offices an analysis of case manager and client interactions
Violence Against Women, 2008Co-Authors: Taryn Lindhorst, Marcia K Meyers, Erin A CaseyAbstract:Despite a high prevalence of domestic violence among Welfare clients, most studies of the implementation of the Family Violence Option (FVO) under Welfare reform find that women rarely receive domestic violence services in Welfare offices. This study reviews findings from current research on the factors that improve the likelihood that women will reveal their domestic violence experiences to service personnel, and uses the guidelines drawn from this review to evaluate domestic violence screening practices in Welfare offices using 782 transcribed interviews between Welfare workers and clients from 11 sites in four states. The analysis found that only 9.3% of case encounters involved screening for domestic violence. Screening rates differed by state, interview type, and length of worker employment. Qualitative analysis of the interviews showed that the majority of screening by workers was routinized or consisted of informing clients of the domestic violence policy without asking about abuse. Only 1.2% of th...
