Telephone is the most frequently used communication modality for coaching sessions in the U.S.; a combination of in-person and telephone coaching is also common. Coaching in person or by telephone, videoconference, or a combination of methods demonstrates positive outcomes. Studies comparing outcomes of coaching inperson with telephone or videoconference suggest varied results. To date, no study has specifically examined communication modalities in coaching for individuals having attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Purpose. This mixed methods exploratory study: • Reviews extant literature on ADHD coaching outcomes to identify coaching modalities used • Surveys ADHD coaches to explore (a) the frequency of use and perceived efficacy of varied modalities and (b) coaches' views of benefits and drawbacks of eachItem Sleep and ADHD: Incorporating Research into Clinical Practice (A Rapid Systematic Review of the Literature)(2019) Saviet, MicahSleep is a critically important topic for individuals with Attention Deficit/ Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) as well as their therapists, coaches, and healthcare providers.

Although social work scholars have begun to explore the relationship between social work and the natural and built environment and professional organizations mandate the integration of this content into practice and education, these goals remain unrealized, particularly in the U.S. To address these issues more effectively, social work educators will need to distinguish between understanding persons in their environment and environmentalism, and between environmentalism and environmental justice. This article analyzes the emergence of the environmental justice movement in the U.S. and other nations and its relationship to environmental racism. It presents a case study of a local environmental justice effort to demonstrate how social workers can use their knowledge and skills to make important contributions to environmental justice and sustainability. It also discusses the potential of “green social work” and transformative learning theory as tools to help social work educators better equip students make strategic alliances across professions, disciplines, and systems to address contemporary environmental crises.Item Frontiers of Change, Transformation, and Innovation through the Grand Challenges for Social Work Initiative(2015-10-16) Barth, Richard P., 1952-; Brekke, John S.; Fong, Rowena; Jenson, Jeffrey M.Item Barriers to Providing And Receiving Adequate Services for Latinos in a New Immigrant Settlement Destination(2015-03-09) Goodman, Marci; Maskell, Erin; Negi, NaliniAIMS 1. Explore social service providers' experiences serving Latinos in the social and cultural context of Baltimore. 2. Identify service gaps in social service provision for Latino Immigrants in Baltimore BACKGROUND INFORMATION Baltimore is a new immigrant settlement destination. Latinos are the fastest rising ethnic group in Baltimore with census data indicating a doubling of the population from 11,061 in 2000 to 25,960 in 2011. While social service delivery is highly critical in the maintenance of the health of vulnerable populations, little is known about the context of social services in new immigrant settlement destinations. METHODS Social service providers who work with Latino immigrant clients were recruited using purposive theoretical sampling. In--depth qualitative interviews were then conducted and audio recorded and later transcribed. DISCUSSION AND IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE Providers are stretched very thin, as few providers work with limited resources to provide support for a growing number of Latinos: Participants rely on networking and collaboration for strength; Participants report feeling a "sense of duty" to serve the Latino community. More support is needed: Recruitment, training, and retention of Spanish speakers in various health science and service oriented programs is crucial; A focus on curriculum development is needed to better prepare future providers for culturally sensitive practice with Latino immigrants. Continued outreach by Baltimore City: This will help to develop trust with the Latino immigrant community.Item Grand Challenges for Social Work(2015-01-17) Barth, Richard P., 1952-; Uehara, Edwina S.; Fong, RowenaItem A history of the first 50 years of the University of Maryland School of Social Work (Baltimore)(2010) Chaiklin, HarrisA history of the first 50 years of the University of Maryland School of Social Work (Baltimore) written from a personal perspective by one of the initial faculty members.Item Remembering My First Year at the University of Maryland School of Social Work(2004) Chaiklin, Harris
