To better understand the effect of health inequities and the manner in which they affect Social Security Administration's (SSA) disability programs, the National Academies hosted a public workshop in April 2024 that examined the variety of different experiences of individuals with disabilities and the consequences of those experiences on an individual's health status, medical record, and SSA disability determinations.

Law Publisher Frontiers in Education Publication Date 2024 Region Nova Scotia, Canada; United States Language English Access Open Access Abstract Globally, young people are experiencing unprecedented levels of socio-emotional loneliness, stress, and uncertainty. Formulating insight into their own and others’ experiences and behaviors is especially important during unsettling times and can be facilitated with socioemotional learning (SEL) curriculums. When implementing SEL programs, their success heavily depends upon teachers’ levels of commitment and comfort with the curriculum, as well as their perceived support from the administration; this is important and rarely studied. The current phenomenological qualitative study examined teachers’ experience during the early implementation of a new SEL, the Human Dignity Curriculum, (HDC) with middle school students in two small schools in Canada and the United States of America. Semi-structured interviews, using a four-question protocol developed for this study, were conducted with teachers who had completed teaching a 10-week module, as well as both school administrators. Written informed consent was obtained from each volunteer interviewee. Participants were asked, (1) Tell me about your experience while teaching HDC; (2) what was your commitment level to teaching HDC? (3) What was your comfort level with teaching HDC? (4) Did you feel supported by your administration when preparing and teaching HDC? Inductive thematic analysis identified five themes indicating HDC was a (1) user-friendly, (2) high value curriculum; (3) teachers felt supported teaching it; and a (4) shared language, (5) and shared teacher-student experience evolved when teaching HDC. Future research to replicate this initial evaluation of teachers’ experience and exploration of HDC’s potential impacts on youths’ well-being and related behavioral outcomes appears warranted.

Watanabe Volume Vol. 18 Journal Name Palliative Care & Social Practice Publication Date 2024 Region Edminton, Canada; Alberta, Canada Language English Access Open Access Abstract Background: Individuals experiencing socioeconomic inequity have worse health outcomes and face barriers to palliative and end-of-life care. There is a need to develop palliative care programs tailored to this underserved population. Objectives: To understand the characteristics and symptom profiles of a group of urban patients experiencing socioeconomic inequity and receiving palliative care. Design: Descriptive exploratory analysis of a patient dataset. The patient dataset was generated through a pilot research study with patients experiencing socioeconomic inequity and life-limiting illness who received a community-based palliative care intervention. Methods: The intervention took place over 1year in the Palliative Care Outreach and Advocacy Team, a community-based urban palliative care clinic in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, serving persons experiencing socioeconomic inequity. Participants had to be at least 18 years of age, be able to communicate in English, require palliative care for a life-limiting illness, and be able to consent to inclusion in the study. Results: Twenty-five participants were enrolled. Participants predominantly identified as male and Indigenous, experienced poverty and housing instability, and had metastatic cancer. Our participants rated their pain, shortness of breath, and anxiety as more severe than the broader community-based palliative care population in the same city. Most patients died in inpatient hospices (73%). Conclusion: Our analysis provides an in-depth picture of an understudied, underserved population requiring palliative care. Given the higher symptom severity experienced by participants, our analysis highlights the importance of person-centered palliative care. We suggest that socioeconomic inequity should be considered in patients with life-limiting illnesses. Further research is needed to explore palliative care delivery to those facing socioeconomic inequity.

Although national policy discussions are lacking, some studies suggest addressing these harms through taxation and supply chain standards. However, these proposals overlook the potential role of corporate power in creating and perpetuating these harms. Our study addresses this gap by examining how political, economic, and structural features of food systems enable the meat industry to externalize costs of production and perpetuate ecological and social harms. Here, we analyze three case studies from different stages of global supply chains, revealing a highly concentrated meat industry, close industry-government ties, reduced regulatory oversight, and entrenched cultural norms about meat’s significance to food security. It calls for policy responses that address the economic and political power of the meat industry and the enabling of social and ecological externalities. Finally, it recommends adoption of a whole-of-food system approach to addressing unaccountable industry power.

One of the more dramatic examples was the destruction of the Arab world’s millennia-old Jewish communities. While this destruction is often discussed only in reference to the creation of the State of Israel, this article proposes a complementary model for understanding it, a model predicated on these Jews’ status as ordinary, not exceptional, inhabitants of the Ottoman world, and the disruption caused by the end of the Ottoman empire and its replacement with European colonial rule. Using interwar Aleppo as a case study, this article demonstrates how the end of the Ottoman system of religious communities led to an extended period of dysfunction for Aleppo’s Jewish communal institutions. Under the French Mandate, this dysfunction left Aleppo’s Jews unable to contend with a succession of crises, including a three-way competition for the community’s loyalty between French administrators, Arab nationalists and the Zionist movement. This dysfunction set the stage for the community’s terminal crisis – the 1947 pogroms.

Yet little research has explored how RCA affects experiences of mothering and relationships with children. Based on an analysis of interviews with 30 Australian mothers, we found that RCA affected mothering in complex ways. Many struggled with feeling detached, resentful, and guilty toward their children, while some found mothering an emotionally and morally restorative experience after the RCA. All felt compelled to conceal their abuse from their children and others. The findings have implications for how healthcare practitioners can support mothers in the aftermath of RCA.

This research is important because the racial and ethnic diversity of the nation’s public school student population places additional responsibility on teacher preparation programs to help prepare culturally proficient teachers. The review of the research literature reflects the positive impact teacher education programs have on improving the culturally responsive teaching and classroom management efficacy of preservice teachers. Servant leadership was studied as a leadership lens for the development of preservice teachers as culturally proficient educators. The research methodology involved surveying preservice teachers in different stages within the TEP and analyzing differences in their responses to understand the potential influence of the TEP. Although statistical significance could not be claimed, the findings reflect preservice teachers with more TEP experience reported higher culturally responsive teaching efficacy than those with less TEP experience, while those with less TEP experience reported higher culturally responsive classroom management efficacy. The proposed solutions include embedding multiple opportunities for preservice teachers to reflect on their culturally responsive teaching and classroom management efficacy throughout their TEP progression and giving them more time to practice culturally responsive teaching and classroom management strategies.

This cultural takeover was accomplished through (1) forced relocation, (2) boarding schools, (3) genocide, (4) forced sterilization, (5) environmental degradation, (5) discrimination, and (6) segregation (Findling et al., 2019). These adverse experiences have led to the high prevalence of hospitalizations, post-traumatic stress disorders, depression, displacement, substance abuse, suicide, homicide, poverty, loss of cultural identity, and death among the Native American population; yet mental health services remain underutilized within this population despite the need for services (Alcántara & Gone, 2014; Brave Heart et al., 2011; Burnette & Figely, 2017; Dennis, 2016). The present study examines a sample of (N=199) exploring how (1) acculturation, (2) centrality of religiosity, (3) gender (4) socioeconomic status, and (5) social support influence attitudes toward seeking professional psychological help among North Carolina and South Carolina Native Americans? A multiple linear regression model of the predictor variables indicated that cultural self-expression and higher levels of social support were predictive of a greater likelihood of the utilization of professional psychological help seeking among the participants. The regression model accounted for 12.6% of the variance in psychological help seeking.

Adolescents can find it difficult to engage in therapeutic services especially if it was not their choice to participate in those services. Therapeutic services can carry a stigma for many Native Americans due to historical trauma. Group therapy provides a further challenge for adolescents as self-disclosure may be intimidating in a room full of peers especially if the therapist is non-native. This study used culturally responsive cinematherapy to assess its relevance as a mode of treatment with adolescents in a group setting. Interviews were conducted with nine NA adolescents from the Bay Area who have watched the television show Reservation Dogs to assess its efficacy for group therapy and its ability to demonstrate SEL competencies. Six NA adults were also surveyed through three focus group sessions where they were shown clips of the show and asked the same questions to assess for possible differences among age cohorts. In addition, both groups were asked questions about the health needs of Native Americans in general. Results from the study were analyzed through thematic analysis and ten themes were developed. Results could be helpful for therapists developing future programs and for future areas of research.
