“…Just like some previous studies have mentioned (Bolin et al, 2018;Wong, 2013), the review has shown that social workers have relevant roles to play in inclusive education for children with disabilities. Social workers are particularly concerned about addressing the psychological and social issues faced by children with disabilities, which undoubtedly have an impact on their academic performance.…”

“…Three studies (Agresta, 2004; Hunter et al, 2017; Wong, 2013) further revealed that social workers provide a range of psychoeducation and social services within inclusive education settings. Wong (2013) observed in his study in Hong Kong that social workers have the responsibility to support children with disabilities with their emotional problems to help them thrive in their relationships. According to Wong (2013), children with disabilities may face difficulties building relationships with their non-disabled peers.…”

“…While teachers often concern themselves with the academic progress of students both with and without disabilities, psychologists, social workers and counsellors are more likely to be interested in addressing the emotional, social and behavioural challenges of children with disabilities. Wong (2013) mentions the provision of psychosocial support as an essential role of social workers in addressing the psychological problems of children with disabilities. As social workers may not often be part of the classroom environment, they may provide some basic knowledge to teachers about signs that could suggest that children with disabilities are facing psychosocial problems.…”

International and local communities have made commitments to ensure that children with disabilities have equal opportunities in education, just like their non-disabled counterparts. Regardless of the increasing research about the development of inclusive education for children with disabilities, inclusive education is not achieved. This calls for a focus on what other professionals, like social workers, can contribute to the successful implementation of inclusive education. A systematic review yielding 11 studies revealed that social workers perform well-known generalist practitioner roles like advocacy, collaboration, education, facilitation and provider of psychosocial support which emphasises the need to involve social workers in inclusive schools.

“…After a thorough search of most available databases and other sources, it is evident that most social work studies involving children with disabilities focus either on children with only one disability (e.g., Matz, 2013;Curran, 2010) or on disabled children in general (e.g., Wong, 2013;Diehl, 2003;Middleton, 1998 2) the social worker has specified roles in which to deal with the psychological problems of children with multiple disabilities; and 3) there are differences among children with multiple disabilities in their psychological problems and emotional and behavioral disorders, according to the type of disability.…”

Studies on the needs of families of children with multiple disabilities are few and limited, and none of these studies have been conducted in the Arab world, in general, nor in Saudi Arabia, in particular. Even though many families suffer from problems that affect their needs and the needs of their children with disabilities, social work research in the Arab world have not focused on the families and their needs. The information collected from such research can help in developing new and superior services to help children with multiple disabilities and their families. Thus, the present study will contribute to a better understanding of the needs of families of children with multiple disabilities and will help to fill the gap in the literature.The purpose of this dissertation was to identify the families' educational, financial, and social needs, and to explore the differences in needs among families based on the parents' demographic information (i.e., educational backgrounds and financial status) and the children's characteristics (i.e., type of disability, gender of the child).Using a questionnaire, the data for this study were collected between May 2016 and September 2016 from 196 fathers and mothers (98 couples) of children with multiple disabilities (male and female, between 5 and 18 years of age) enrolled in multiple-disability programs from 10 institutes each supervised through the Ministry vii of Education in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. The data were analyzed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (IBM SPSS-22). Descriptive statistics were used to ascertain the sample description. In addition, one-way ANOVA and two-way ANOVA were used for answer research questions.Generally, parents reported that families' needs are still falling short of being fulfilled in Saudi Arabia. Moreover, there was a significant difference between parents' gender regarding social needs; mothers reported a stronger need for social support than did fathers. Thus, the results suggest that the perceived social needs of the mothers are more important to them than the perceived education and financial needs. Moreover, the educational needs based on the parent's level of education was significant with the mothers who had high school diploma. The financial needs based on the interaction between parents' gender and child's gender was significant in favor of fathers with female children. Finally, the educational needs based on a child's type of disability was significant for both parents when the child had both deafness and another type of disability.
