Objectives : The purpose of this study was to identify problems in defining the concept of care and redefine it broadly, to examine the possibility of community care as an alternative way to change the negative image of care concept. Method : The literature review method was used for the study. Results : First, care is limitedly conceptualized as a concept of physical care and care for children and the elderly. Second, child care is perceived only as a burden, and it is avoided to express care needs in the youth period, and the care of the elderly is putting off responsibility between the public and the private sector. Third, through community care, we should be able to feel happiness in life itself and care needs to be recognized as a way of being throughout our life.

청년문제에 대한 심각성과 관심이 증가하는 현실에서 본 연구는 사회복지 현장에서 니트청년을 지원한 희망플랜 사업을 중심으로 사회복지사들이 사업에 참여하기 전에 청년, 니트 문제에 대해 어떻게 인식하였고, 사업을 전개하는 과정에서 경험했던 어려움은 무엇이며, 이러한 어려움에 어떻게 대처하였는지를 분석하였다. 연구의 결과는 다음과 같다. 사회복지사들은 사업 참여 이전에 청년문제의 심각성에 안타까움을 가지고 있었지만, 그것을 해결할 방법이 없다고 인식하고 있었고, 다수의 사회복지사들은 청년이나 니트문제에 대해 관심도 없고 무지한 상태였다. 이러한 상황에서 니트 청년들과 사업을 운영하는 과정에서 사회복지사들은 니트 청년의 특성으로 인한 어려움, 니트 청년들과 관계를 형성하는 것의 어려움, 청년들이 시간을 내지 않거나 지키지 않는 것의 어려움, 사업에 대한 노하우가 없는 것으로 인한 어려움, 기관 단독으로 운영할 수 없는 것의 어려움, 취업 목적을 달성하는 것의 어려움 등 6가지의 어려움에 직면하였다. 이러한 어려움에 대처하는 과정에서 사회복지사들은 니트 청년들이 사업에 참여하도록 적극적으로 찾고 설득하며 지지하였고, 청년에게 시간과 장소, 방법을 맞추었으며, 사업 안에 있는 낙인요소를 제거하고 개별화하여 단계적으로 사업을 진행하였다. 또한 지역주민과 지역기관, 관과 긴밀히 연결하고 네트워크를 형성하면서 사업을 운영하였고, 청년을 취업시키기보다는 일의 경험을 제공하되 장기적으로 성과를 보는 것으로 관점을 바꾸며 대처하였다. 이를 통하여 사회복지사들은 실무자로서 개인의 변화뿐만 아니라 사회복지 조직과 현장, 지역사회와 지역기관의 변화를 경험하게 되었다. 이러한 결과에 기반하여 본 연구는 사회복지 실천현장이 청년 갭이어를 지원하는 과정에서 다양한 활동을 제공하고, 청년과 일을 할 때에는 공급자로서 역할을 하기보다 다양한 행위주체가 연결되는 방식으로 일하며, 무엇보다 사회복지 현장이 청년을 포괄하는 형태로 사업의 범위가 확대되어야 한다는 것을 제안하였다.

Background: Tobacco use among youth is a major public health problem. Youth outside of formal school settings are often understudied but may be at increased risk. Materials and Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study was carried out among 326 young people aged 15-24 years in four randomly selected motor parks in Lagos state. Interviewer-administered questionnaires were used to collect data. Results: The mean age of the respondents was $21.0{\pm}2.3yrs$. Many 252 (77.3%) dropped out before the end of the third year of secondary schooling. The majority were aware that active (78.2%), and passive smoking (77.3%) are harmful to health. Nearly two-thirds of the respondents disagreed with an outright ban of cigarettes (63.2%) and restriction of cigarette sales to persons below 18 years (67.9%) while 254 (66.8%) supported a ban on tobacco smoking in enclosed public places. One hundred and fifty (46.0%) respondents had experimented with smoking of which 106 (32.5%) had progressed to become current smokers. Half of the current smokers, 54 (50.9%), felt the need for a cigarette first thing in the morning. A multivariate analysis for smoking initiation, showed that for every increasing year of age, respondents were 1.08 times more likely to have initiated cigarette smoking; males and respondents who lived alone or with peers were 2.34 times and 1.77 times more likely to have initiated smoking respectively; those who consume alcohol and marijuana were 7.27 and 1.89 times respectively more likely to have initiated smoking while those who consumed alcohol were 6.17 times more likely to be current smokers.

An appropriate parent role model for alcohol, tobacco and other drug abuse prevention in adolescence was designed as part of a comprehensive effort to reduce the use of alcohol, tobacco and other drugs by underage youth. The content of the model offers a new and positive chemical health model. The model calls for development of a set of guidelines that can provide the framework for examining alcohol, tobacco and other drug use. The actions of adults in the community, especially parents, are very important factors in whether or not youth use chemicals. So these guidelines can be used to assist parents and other adults with questions such as, what can we say to young people about using alcohol, tobacco or other drugs except that it's against the law? At what age and times are discussions appropriate? What can we do to make our community a healthier place in which young people can make better decisions about alcohol, tobacco and other drug use? The model acknowledges and affirms the legal and appropriate use of alcohol and other drugs as well as supports the decision not to drink. It encourages participants to consider their own guidelines for using and not using alcohol and other drugs. The guidelines can also be used as the basis for early intervention when use is illegal, unhealthy or risky. It is important to note that the model affirms healthy and appropriate use as well as nonuse.

Methods: Data were collected from the 2011 Korea Youth Risk Behavior Web-based Survey (29,676 students) and 2011 Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance System (10,135 high school students). Logistic regression analysis was performed. Results: In Korea, students who had sexual intercourse accounted for 7.0% in total. Among these, 9.7% were male and 4.2% were female students. In the US, a total of 51.3% students had sexual intercourse, and the proportion of the US male (49.3%) and female (53.4%) students who had sexual intercourse was similar. Korean and US students who experienced sexual intercourse were more likely to smoke, drink alcohol, and use drugs.
