Sending Love Home: The Effects Of Global Care Chains On Economics, Family, And Agency, Emily Haley

Perspectives

Globalization has allowed for an increasing interconnectedness of people all around the globe, but this comes at a price to the livelihoods of many individuals and traditional structures that attempt to remain unaffected from the influence of globalization. Issues like family relations and international migration are prevalent in the Philippines, where many women become migrant workers to support their families back home. These women take jobs in families as domestic workers, doing household chores and caring for the children while the mothers enter the workforce.

Lgbtqiap+ University Students And Likelihood Of Self-Harm, Evan Smith

Perspectives

Self-harm is defined as the direct, deliberate destruction or alteration of body tissue (Bakken and Gunter 2012).

All Materials

Research has clearly demonstrated the significant short- and long-term impacts of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and the social determinants of health (SDOH) on child health and well-being.1 Identifying and addressing ACEs and SDOH will require a coordinated and systems-based approach.
