The study aims to know the profile of the respondents in terms of age, gender, educational attainment, and monthly family average income of parents and to identify how the support is extended by the parents on their special need children toward their studies along the area of becoming a strong advocate, getting acquainted with school regulation, learning to access additional services, developing relationship with children module tutors, and future of special need children. The descriptive quantitative research design is employed in the study. The subjects of the study are the parents of the special needs children who are enrolled in the different Higher Education Institutions (HEI) both in private and government entities in the GCC country. Twenty (20) parents are topped in the utilization of the study. A non-probability sampling technique is utilized in the study which is purposive sampling because it is appropriate in the development of the study. The results show that there is no significant relationship between the profile of the respondents and how support is extended by the parents of the special need children toward their studies.

“…It is possible that the alcohol abuse finding suggests that incarcerated parents who found parent-child separation because of incarceration particularly stressful were the ones who stayed sober before incarceration (Poehlmann, 2005). Some parenting programs offered in prisons can help incarcerated parents cope with these stressors and find ways of connecting positively with their children; for example, Parenting Inside Out is a rigorously evaluated program for incarcerated parents that addresses these issues (Eddy et al, 2013(Eddy et al, , 2019. Few parenting programs are offered in jails, in part because of the relatively short incarceration compared with prisons.…”

“…It is important to keep these factors in mind, as interventions for incarcerated parents may be improved if they help parents connect to their families as well as attending to basic needs such as education and job skills. For example, Parenting Inside Out includes attention to multiple aspects of parental well-being, including communicating with family members (Eddy et al, 2013(Eddy et al, , 2019. Several studies have documented the importance of family of origin or partner connections for postrelease success of incarcerated parents (e.g., La Vigne et al, 2005, 2009.…”

Unmet Mental Health Needs of Jailed Parents With Young Children

et al. 2020

ObjectiveMental health symptoms in jailed parents with young children were examined in relation to gender, race, trauma, parenting stress, and supports.BackgroundMost U.S. incarceration occurs in jails, which are notorious for high rates of mental illness. Jail incarceration is a significant stressor for families because most incarcerated individuals are parents.MethodThe sample included 165 jailed parents with children (aged 2–6 years) who completed an interview and questionnaires. Relative risk analyses determined symptom severity, and multivariate analysis of variance tested differences in White and non‐White mothers and fathers. Ordinary least squares regression examined predictors of mental health symptoms.ResultsDepression and thought problems (hallucinations, strange thoughts, self‐harm) were the most common problems. Jailed mothers reported more depression, anxiety, attention‐deficit/hyperactivity disorder, and drug abuse than fathers. Childhood physical abuse and parenting stress were associated with more symptoms, whereas family support related to fewer symptoms.ConclusionJailed parents experienced 3 to 5 times the odds of symptoms compared with norms, with a high rate of comorbidities relative to the low proportion of parents who received any mental health treatment.ImplicationsMental health interventions for jailed parents are needed, especially gender‐responsive, trauma‐informed services that decrease parenting stress and foster positive family connections.

“…Numerous interventions have been implemented in correctional facilities and the community, including such programs as parenting classes, family visitation, prison nurseries, and alternatives to incarceration (Kjellstrand, 2017 ). However, the effects of these interventions are still largely unknown (Kjellstrand, 2017 ; Eddy et al, 2019 ). To the best of our knowledge, no research has focused specifically on how to support CIO parents and their families.…”

Service Needs for Corrections-Involved Parents With a History of Problematic Opioid Use: A Community Needs Assessment

2021

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The incarceration of a parent is often a continuation of a challenging family situation marked by poverty, unstable housing, trauma, and abuse. These challenges make it difficult for incarcerated parents reentering their communities to raise their children effectively and, thus, increase the likelihood of poor outcomes for their children. Children whose parents are also battling opioid misuse have an even higher risk for long-term problems. This study uses survey data from 48 community service providers to better understand the service needs of parents with histories of problematic opioid use who are reentering their communities after incarceration. Community service providers recommended implementing intervention programs that cover critical information related to basic needs, supportive community resources, drug treatment programs, and parenting to help individuals thrive in their communities and meet their children's needs. The services most frequently identified by providers as important for reentering parents included housing, mentors or peer counselors, mental health support, group therapy and other support programs. Key topics to address in parenting programs included problem-solving techniques, the effect of parent's addiction on children, and strategies for connecting with and meeting children's needs. Suggestions are made for future research and intervention development.
