The purpose of this study was to investigate the food service status of community child care centers in Busan. A survey was conducted from November 1, 2012 to November 30, 2012 using questionnaires. Overall, 66.7% of the community child care centers had a separate dining room. The satisfaction score of the kitchen facility was 4.32 and the satisfaction degree of the dining place was 3.95. Most of the community child care centers were not managed by professionals and the food service was in a relatively poor status. In 61.3% of the community child care centers, the director of the center purchased the foodstuffs. In addition, approximately 72% of the child care centers directly purchased foodstuffs. When preparing meals, nutrition (73.0%), cost (13.5%), and preference (4.5%) were considered as the important factors for respondents. Overall, there were demands for increasing meal costs and improving the food service facilities. In addition, a higher degree of hygiene management resulted in a higher degree of satisfaction from children. Therefore, to improve food service performance at community child care centers, food services should be assisted by professionals and the person in charge of foodservices should be educated food service management.

This study investigated the needs to improve the quality of foodservice management in community child centers (CCCs), in accordance to the area where the CCC was located. The people in charge of foodservice management of 466 community child centers undertook a web survey, between July to August 2016. Most centers used menus from the Headquarters of Community Child Center (50.0%) or Center for Children's Foodservice Management (34.1%). Factor analysis and multiple regression analysis were conducted to assess the requirement for improving the quality of foodservice management at the CCCs. Four factors were analyzed: 'food material and facility management', 'administration management', 'menu management', and 'human resources management'. In large cities, 'administration management' and 'menu management' were found to affect quality improvement. In small cities, none of the factors assessed were effective in improvement. 'human resources management' had a significant influence on improving the quality of the foodservice in rural areas. The results of this study show that there was a difference in the quality improvement of the foodservice management in the centers, with respect to the location of the center. Therefore, this study can be used as basic data to establish the support policy for improving the quality of foodservice management in community child centers.

본 연구는 전라북도 지역아동센터 현황과 실태 및 서비스 수준을 분석하였다. 그 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 전라북도 지역아동센터는 2004년 이전 37개소 16.1%였으나 해마다 20~40개소씩 증가하여 왔다. 현재 지역아동센터는 신고제이기 때문에 정부지원이 시작된 이래 개소수가 증가하고 있는 실정이다. 지역아동센터의 난립을 억제하고, 신설되는 지역아동센터의 경우는 일정수준 이상의 환경을 구비하도록 하기 위하여 신고제에서 허가제로의 전환을 적극 검토할 필요가 있다. 둘째, 전라북도 지역아동센터 225개소의 이용아동 총 수 6, 144명 중 일반아동이 1,711명 27.8%를 차지하고 있는 것으로 나타났으며, 평가지표에서도 이용 아동 및 출석 영역의 점수가 낮게 나타났다. 일반아동과 취약계층 아동의 통합적 보호라는 점에서 바람직할 수 있으나, 지역아동센터의 정체성을 확보하고 사업목적에 맞는 운영을 할 수 있도록 세부 규정을 보완할 필요가 있다. 세째, 지역사회 유관기관 및 인적자원 활용 영역의 점수가 다른 지표 항목에 비교해서 낮은 점수를 보였다. 이는 전라북도 지역아동센터의 대부분이 자원봉사자는 활용하고 있지만 지역사회 연계사업이 활발하게 진행되지 못하기 때문이다. 시 군 구가 지역사회를 대상으로 지역아동센터의 기능과 역할을 홍보하고 지역의 전문 인력과 네트워크를 구축할 수 있도록 지원할 필요가 있다.

이 연구는 빈곤 아동을 위한 대표적인 돌봄시설로 선별주의적 접근방식을 취하고 있는 지역아동센터를 이용하는 아동이 지각하는 낙인감에 대한 관심에서 비롯되었다. 스트레스 과정 모델을 기반으로 지역아동센터 이용아동의 스트레스원인 낙인감이 행복감에 미치는 영향을 살펴보고, 이들 관계에서 대처자원인 임파워먼트와 지역사회자본의 매개효과를 검증하는 것이 연구목적이다. 대구광역시와 경산시에 소재한 지역아동센터를 이용하고 있는 초등학생 5, 6학년 175명을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였다. SPSS Process Macro와 bootstrapping 방식을 사용하여 낙인감과 행복감과의 관계에서 임파워먼트와 지역사회자본의 매개효과를 분석하였다. 그 결과 지역아동센터 이용아동의 성별, 가족형태, 성적을 통제한 후, 낙인감은 행복감에 유의미한 부적 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 임파워먼트와 지역사회자본은 낙인감과 행복감의 관계에서 유의미한 매개효과를 가지는 것으로 확인되었다. 이러한 연구결과를 토대로 지역아동센터 이용아동의 행복감을 향상시킬 수 있는 정책적·실천적 함의를 제시하였다.

This study examined the current status of the service networking experiences of workers in community child centers and the impact of various individual, organizational, and environmental factors on their service networking experiences. Structured questionnaires were mailed to the all community child centers in the Kyungnam area, and the data thus collected from 128 workers were used for the analysis. The findings indicated that most study participants did in fact possess service networking experience; however, the frequency was relatively low and the types of agencies in which this networking experienced was gained were somewhat limited. The results from the hierarchical multiple regression analysis revealed that being licensed social workers, the number of years in which a center had been operating, the numbers of workers and volunteers, the capacity of the centers, and workers' participation in work-related training were significantly associated with the frequency of worker's networking experiences. Based on the findings of this study, the implications for practice in promoting service networking among community child centers and other community resources were also discussed.

Objectives: This study was performed to identify the current barriers of obesity management for children using Community Child Care Centers and their caregivers (parents and teachers working in the Centers). Further, this study explored the possibility of utilizing a mobile phone application for tailored obesity prevention and management programs to overcome the current difficulties associated with children's obesity management. Methods: The qualitative data were collected through in-depth interviews with 20 obese and overweight children or children who wanted to participate in this study using Community Child Care Centers, 12 teachers working at the Centers, and a focus group interview with five parents of children using the Centers. Data were analyzed with a thematic approach categorizing themes and sub-themes based on the transcripts. Results: The current barriers of obesity management of obese and overweight children using Community Child Care Centers were lack of self-directed motivation regarding obesity management (chronic obesity-induced lifestyles and reduced self-confidence due to stigma) and lack of support from households and Community Child Care Centers (latchkey child, inconsistency in dietary guidance between the Center and household, repetitive pressure to eat, and absence of regular nutrition education). Mobile phone applications may have potential to overcome the current barriers by providing handy and interesting obesity management based on visual media (real-time tracking of lifestyles using behavior records and social support using gamification), environmental support (supplementation of parental care and network-based education between the Community Child Care Center and household), and individualized intervention (encouragement of tailored and gradual changes in eating habits and tailored goal setting). It is predicted that the real-time mobile phone program will provide information for improving nutritional knowledge and behavioral skills as well as lead to sustainable children's coping strategies regarding obesity management. In addition, it is expected that environmental factors may be improved by network-based education between the Community Child Care Centers and households using the characteristics of mobile phones, which are free from space and time constraints. Conclusions: The tailored education program for children using Community Child Care Centers based on mobile phones may prevent and reduce childhood obesity by overcoming the current barriers of obesity management for children, providing environmental and individualized support to promote healthy lifestyles and quality of life in the future.

This study the presents survey results of a families living with children with disabilities in northern Seoul (Nowon-gu and Dobong-gu) that provides various educational services. This study investigates the current usage and needs of community resources for children with disabilities by the families in the inclusive and segregated care as well as education centers to provide information for the effective implementation of the current system. A total of 109 surveys were distributed and 62 (57%) were returned. 44 families in the 14 inclusive care and education centers as well as 18 families in the 2 segregated care and education centers participated in this study. They were asked to report on access to community resources that include compulsory education, family support, medical treatment, counseling services, commuting support, ways to gain necessary information, current use, and further needs for community resources for their children. Research results indicated that families in two different types of child care centers needed differentiated community services. Parents who use a segregated child care center demanded physical accessibility and increased numbers of highly qualified teachers; however, parents who use the inclusive child care center require the unified information system for the community resources. Survey findings are discussed related to differences between the two types of child care centers. Implications for sharing comprehensive information through child care teachers and directors of child care centers and future research are also discussed.
