“…Family ADDRESSING DEEP POVERTY-RELATED STRESS mental, physical, and behavioral health functioning are addressed to affect healing and coping during challenging times. This approach can be implemented during family times of transition, when a member has mental and/or physical health concerns, or other problematic situations (Frankel & Frankel, 2006). The dynamics of the family unit are considered key in treating the concerns of individual members.…”

Poverty is the single largest social determinant of health and a major precipitator of emotional distress and mental illness. Deep poverty, which designates those living in the bottom half of the poverty level, produces disproportionately adverse effects on education, work opportunities, physical and mental health, social support, and overall success and well-being, such that the cycle of deep poverty is frequently perpetuated through intergenerational susceptibility. Because of the highly complex, multifaceted nature of deep poverty, the most optimal way to address deep poverty-related issues is to use an integrated approach across multiple levels of interventions. We provide a review of current deep poverty literature and present evidence-based approaches for clinicians to consider integrating into their practices across psychobehavioral, psychosocial, psychobiological, psycho-environmental, and psycho-societal levels. In addition, given the cyclical relationship between deep poverty and mental health, the benefits of broadening the current diagnostic nomenclature to differentiate between psychological and social situational triggers in maladaptive functioning are briefly discussed.

“…Trata-se, ainda, de um modelo multisistémico (Boyd-Franklin & Bry, 2000), focado na família e orientado por modelos de resiliência familiar (Walsh, 2006), que valoriza o trabalho no domicílio (Boyd-Franklin & Bry, 2000;Woodford, Bordeau, & Alderfer, 2006). Desta forma, o MAIFI procura colmatar uma lacuna no panorama português no que diz respeito à existência de intervenções familiares especializadas, adequadas às múltiplas necessidades de famílias multi-desafiadas (Melo & Alarcão, 2010a;Sousa, 2005) e especialmente adaptadas a situações de pobreza (Frankel & Frankel, 2006;Rojano, 2004).…”

Resumo: Este artigo apresenta os resultados da avaliação da qualidade do planeamento de um Modelo de Avaliação e Intervenção Familiar Integrada (MAIFI) tendo em vista a sua implementação em Centros de Apoio Familiar e Aconselhamento Parental. Utilizando-se uma adaptação da Técnica de Grupo Nominal, um painel de especialistas avaliou a proposta apresentada, quer no que diz respeito ao MAIFI, quer no que toca ao perfil de competências dos profissionais que o venham a implementar e ao plano de formação dos mesmos. As médias das avaliações quantitativas indicam resultados bastante satisfatórios considerando a relevância, a qualidade do enquadramento conceptual e da definição de objectivos, a adequação às características da população-alvo, a qualidade dos métodos propostos, dos recursos necessários e dos procedimentos de avaliação das propostas. Foi realizada uma análise do conteúdo da reunião de avaliação, sendo apresentadas e

“…Many family therapy theories speak specifically to the building of boundaries as protective factors (e.g., Structural Family Therapy) and seek to help mothers differentiate from their family of origin (e.g., Bowen Family Systems; Nichols & Schwartz, 2007). Other models for working with impoverished families are suggested by Frankel and Frankel (2006). Social workers need to help mothers navigate these fine lines.…”
