El Aprendizaje y Servicio (APS) es una propuesta educativa que combina procesos de aprendizaje y de servicio a la comunidad en un solo proyecto. El Aprenentatge i Servei en el Centre Penitenciari de Lledoners nace de la voluntad de estudiantes y docentes de la Facultad de Educación Social y Trabajo Social Pere Tarrés (URL) y del Grupo 33, una Plataforma Ciudadana de Sensibilización y Movilización, formada por más de 7.000 personas de todos los sectores de la sociedad civil, que trabaja para conseguir la reinserción real de las personas privadas de libertad. El proyecto pretende hacer frente al actual modelo de prisiones de Cataluña y promover cambios hacia un modelo rehabilitador.

Aquesta recerca, amb l’objectiu general de conèixer i analitzar els processos d’inserció al mercat laboral, les estratègies i pràctiques d’inserció, i els àmbits d’ocupació de les dones immigrades en la societat de recepció, es va plantejar com a finalitat proposar línies d'actuació i pràctiques d'atenció vers aquest col•lectiu. Sota l’eix 1 del Pacte Nacional, apunta a garantir la igualtat de drets i l’accés al mercat laboral de les persones, des de la tranversalitat del gènere. Mitjançant l’aplicació d'entrevistes semiestructurades per tal de construir "trajectòries d’immigració" de dones, i obtenir una mirada sociohistòrica i dinàmica del procés de d’inserció laboral a la societat de recepció, es va portar a terme la recerca amb la participació de 17 dones immigrades al territori català. Entre els resultats, cal destacar que: en quant als relats d’origen destaca la diversitat de motius de la immigració, posant en qüestió les tesis purament economicistes, i en relació amb les polítiques i pràctiques d’inserció laboral, podem confirmar que els esforços dels recursos d’atenció tendeixen a encertar a les dones en els nínxols laborals més precaritzats, i sobre tot generitzats. Per altre banda, l’estudi ens ha permet apropar-nos a les estratègies que fan servir les dones per a sortejar les limitacions, sobre tot legals, que es troben a la societat de recepció. Aquestes accions ens permeten analitzar l’agència de les dones immigrades i la importància de les xarxes socials i de la participació, per a una inserció sociolaboral més plena. A més de les conclusions i recomanacions contingudes en aquest document, s'ha elaborat un material didàctic que es composa de: 1. Documental "Per compte aliè" en el qual hi ha les històries d'inserció de 5 dones i; 2. Guia de 12 tallers de treball com a proposta d’intervenció, destinats als col•lectius i serveis que treballen per a la inserció.

Des d'una perspectiva moderna, l'acolliment familiar és un recurs social que implica atorgar la guarda d'un menor a una persona o nucli familiar, amb l'obligació de cuidar-lo, alimentar-lo i educarlo per un temps, amb la finalitat d' integrar-lo en una vida familiar que substitueixi o complementi temporalment la seva natural (Llei 37/1991, Generalitat de Catalunya). L'acolliment familiar s'ha obert i adaptat a les necessitats actuals deis nen/es i joves, unes necessitats com més va més complexes. En aquest sentit, avui en dia parlem de diverses modalitats d'acolliment: amb previsió de retorn; sense previsió de retorn o/i preadoptiu. Cada una d'aquestes modalitats permetra respondre a les diverses situacions deis infants i de les seves famílies. Pero per garantir l'interés del menor i desenvolupar una bona practica de l'acolliment familiar cal tenir ben estructurades les diverses fases que composen un programa d'acolliments familiars.

Dins l'ambit de la intervenció familiar, o de l'educació familiar -com s'anomena en els pa'isos francófons-, Durning (1997) defineix quatre grups de famílies als quals van dirigides les accions de la intervenció: Famílies d'origen social desfavorit, Famílies amb infants amb diferents disminucions, Famílies amb infants amb dificultats d'adaptació social, joves delinqüents o molt pertorbats, Famílies que tenen dificultats amb el seu filio filia i busquen ajuda o consell. L'article que presentem té com a grup diana les famílies amb fills o filies amb disminució, tant si la disminució és física com si és sensorial o psíquica.

Introduction: The composition of the Spanish population has recently changed due to immigration. The present study aimed to estimate the magnitude of change in the calculation of healthy life expectancy and life expectancy in disability, taking the population of foreign residents into account. For this population, there is no information on mortality or the prevalence of disability. Material and methods: Data were extracted from the 1999 Survey on Disabilities, Handicaps and Health Status to estimate healthy life expectancy and life expectancy in disability using the Sullivan method. Data were taken from the Spanish Statistical Institute and the World Health Organization, Sullivan's method was adapted to the case of two different populations, and possible scenarios were established. Results: The differences between the mortality table estimated for the foreign resident population and that estimated for the Spanish population were considerable and were more evident in women. At 65 years of age and in the worst scenario, which occurs when all the members of the foreign resident population are disabled, life expectancy in disability would be 2 more years for men and 3 more years for women than when the foreign population was not considered. Conclusions: Our scenarios reveal that the impact of immigration on the calculation of healthy life expectancy and life expectancy in disability is moderate.

This paper investigates the prevalence of incapacity in performing daily activities and the associations between household composition and availability of family members and receipt of care among older adults with functioning problems in Spain, England and the United States of America (USA). We examine how living arrangements, marital status, child availability, limitations in functioning ability, age and gender affect the probability of receiving formal care and informal care from household members and from others in three countries with different family structures, living arrangements and policies supporting care of the incapacitated. Data sources include the 2006 Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe for Spain, the third wave of the English Longitudinal Study of Ageing (2006), and the eighth wave of the USA Health and Retirement Study (2006). Logistic and multinomial logistic regressions are used to estimate the probability of receiving care and the sources of care among persons age 50 and older. The percentage of people with functional limitations receiving care is higher in Spain. More care comes from outside the household in the USA and England than in Spain. The use of formal care among the incapacitated is lowest in the USA and highest in Spain.

Aquesta activitat es centra en l’estudi de la qualitat percebuda per part dels usuaris de serveis socials bàsics de la ciutat de Lleida. L’anàlisi s’ha basat en dos centres en concret, Democràcia i Cappont. Per a l’elaboració d’aquesta investigació, s’han combinat tècniques quantitatives i qualitatives. Per una banda, s’ha utilitzat l’escala SERVQUAL per conèixer la percepeció que tenen les persones usuàries dels serveis esmentats i per l’altra, s’han realitzat entrevistes a estudiants del grau de Treball Social que han fet les pràctiques als centres estudiats. Els resultats, ens han servit per poder observar els elements més ben valorats i els aspectes sobre els quals cal incidir per millorar l’atenció. Finament, hem exposat quines creiem que són les modificacions que caldria introduir i quins són els aprenentatges personals d’aquesta investigació.

In times of crisis, the youth policies are experiencing enormous cutbacks and transformations to the point that we are wondering whether they really exist as public policies with their own entity. The situation in which many young people find themselves in Spain leads them to wonder where the traditional protection networks are: The family, the NGO’s or the Welfare State, when they are really needed. Our objective in this article is to show and discuss the situation of the youth policies in Spain in the present context of social austerity and drastic cutbacks. We carry out this analysis from the parameters of the magical triangle that unite policies, research and social work with young people

El artículo se inicia con una reflexión en torno al hecho de que las inter- venciones centradas en las familias de niños con discapacidad intelectual pueden ser consideradas como una contribución a su calidad de vida. A partir de aquí se revisa brevemente el concepto de calidad de vida, su evolución y su aplicación en el ámbito de las familias de personas con dis- capacidad intelectual. Se presenta una revisión de investigaciones en el ámbito de la intervención naturalista en la comunicación y el lenguaje, basadas en teorías funcionales e interactivas del desarrollo, tanto centra- das en el trabajo directo con el niño como centradas en la familia. Se presentan resultados de intervenciones naturalistas llevadas a cabo en nuestro país cen- tradas tanto en niños con discapacidad intelectual como en sus familias. Finalmente, se defiende que para conseguir una mayor calidad de vida de los niños con discapacidad intelectual y sus familias, debemos optar por una nueva metodología que suponga un trabajo coordinado y compartido, desde el inicio, entre todos los profesionales e instituciones implicados en el proceso

The aim of this study is to examine the lifestyle characteristics and health status of the elderly in order to identify aspects that might help promote active ageing. Participants were 26 elderly citizens aged 75 or over who were the recipients of home care services in Vilafranca del Penedès (Barcelona, Spain). They were recruited by means of convenience sampling, and a case study approach was adopted. Fieldwork was conducted in April 2007, with a specially designed questionnaire administered in the context of an in-depth interview. Quantitative data were analyzed with SPSS 15, while qualitative data were analysed and grouped by category. The results indicated that 53.8% of the elderly interviewees perceived their health status as being regular, most did not have adequate nutrition and hydration, while 42.3% had chewing problems and 65.3% presented slight dependence. Most of them received visits at home, but did not go on leisure outings. The only exercise they took was walking. These findings highlight the need to promote and strengthen activities for healthy ageing, and to ensure that people over 75 receive adequate care. Programmes should be implemented to improve those aspects that are currently under-addressed.
