Objectives: This study investigated the need for nutrition education aimed at improving the health of residents and users of social welfare facilities for persons with disability and aimed to provide basic information for developing a nutrition education program that meets the needs of the field. Methods: Altogether, 249 employees working in social welfare facilities for people with disabilities were included in the study. Data on the health status of residents/users, meal management, nutritional education, nutritional education needs, and awareness of nutritional education were obtained through online surveys. A descriptive analysis was conducted to analyze the demographic characteristics, needs, and perceptions of the respondents, and independent t-tests and χ² tests were performed to analyze and compare the differences between residential and daycare facilities. Results: The majority of residents/users of social welfare facilities for persons with disabilities have developmental disabilities. When educating residents with residents/users of social welfare facilities, 'personal hygiene' was the most necessary topic, followed by 'obesity management' education. Regarding the methods of providing education, face-to-face lectures demonstrated a high demand. They responded that when nutrition education experts provide nutrition education to people with disabilities, they must understand 'the physical characteristics of persons with disabilities' and have the ability to determine appropriate nutrition for such people. The most appropriate nutrition program training would be twice a year, lasting 30 min to 1 h per training session. Conclusions: It will present a direction for operating a nutrition education program for persons with disabilities that meets their needs of social welfare facilities and ultimately contribute to the establishment and activation of nutrition education tailored to welfare facilities for such individuals in Korea.

그동안 노년기 사회참여에 관한 연구들과 정부 사업들은 공급자의 관점에서 진행되어 왔다. 본 연구는 노년기 사회참여의 주체인 노인의 욕구를 바탕으로 향후 관련 정책 방향을 제시하는 데에 목적을 두었다. 연구 목적 달성을 위하여 본 연구는 서울시에 거주하는 60세 이상 35인을 대상으로 Q 방법론을 적용하였다. 연구 결과, 노인들이 이상적으로 생각하는 노년기의 사회참여 모습은 스스로 원하는 것을 선택하여 독립적이고 활발하게 활동하는 것이다. 반대로, 노년기에 접어들었으나 여생을 어떻게 살아야 할지 혼란스러워하는 것이 이상적이지 않은 노년기 모습이다. 이를 바탕으로 노년기 사회참여 욕구는 4가지 요인(자아 중심 여부, 사회적 자본 유무, 삶의 만족수준, 삶의 활력 출처)별 상 하위 유형의 총 8가지 유형으로 구분되었다. 이와 같은 연구 결과를 통해 사회참여 욕구 유형별 특성과 사회참여의 동기를 이해할 수 있으며, 유형별 대응 방안을 검토할 수 있다. 본 연구 결과는 모든 개입 방향의 전제는 당사자의 사회참여에 대한 자발성이라는 함의를 제시한다.

As the institutions of the Day Care services in Korea have merely focused on developing the issues for caring and education of children, however, other principles in the Day Care services have not been properly delivered. So, it is necessary for the institutions delivering Day Care services to approach inclusively above four perspectives to the broad sense of the child welfare because the institutions for Day care services are dealing with the groups of the parents, who are in difficulty to take care of their children, and the needs of the parents in terms of caring for their children. The study focuses to research the groups of children, which have various and mixed needs and the problems. On the other hand, the socio-economic attributes, the needs and the problems of the groups of the parents are looked for in the research. As the result of the research, the needs for Day Care services are differentiated from the different socio-economic backgrounds of the parents group. The data indicates that the low class families demands more needs than those of the middle class in the research of the categories. Analyzing from the result, the categories of caring, health care, nutritional supplements, extracurricular activities, emotional supports, providing information and referrals and community social services are hard to be defined as the necessary services based on the ages of the children. It is better to be defined as the necessary services demanding from the social needs of the parent group. Thus, the target groups such as the working couple and the low income families should be primarily considered as the beneficiary groups receiving the comprehensive day care services.

In Korean society, a housewife and mother often plays the role of family resource manager. In 2008, the newly appointed Korean government proposed a new direction in social policies, including family policy, that is, "active social welfare". According to "active social welfare", family policy focuses on a preventive policy and a family needs-oriented policy. In other words, newly established family policies should reflect parents' needs in their family resource management. In this economic downturn, family policies should be established to satisfy parents' needs to overcome their own family's economic crisis. This study focuses on policy recipients' real voices and their needs: they need the government's help supporting their efforts to overcome the economic crises within their families.

Toe public library may perform a social good only when its objectives are adequate to the community's needs. The present purpose of the public library in the Korean Library Act has no direct concern for our social needs from its very beginning because it was not created in response to our social needs but transplanted from American principles. It is, therefore. difficult to expect socially useful output of our public library programs under the present purpose which may be inadequate to our social tradition and needs. This study purposes to examine validity of the present purpose of the public library in the Korean Library Act, in the light of our community needs and our own library tradition. The methods employed to achieve the purpose of the study are (1) to survey needs of the library frequenters through questionnaire, and interviews with the public librarians in Seoul, (2) to gather the statistical data relevant to, and supporting, the hypothesis, and (3) to compare our social background with that of the United States of which the American purpose, a model for our present purpose, came out. The conclusion is as follows: A. The idea to induce people to pull themselves upward by providing for all the members of the community access to the world's best books shelved in the public library should be abandoned. The reasons are (1) that the idea is alien in our public library tradition, (2) that little demand of the community goes with the idea, and (3) that reading outside the library has come into wide practice, thanks to recent increase in individual income and that in publications. B. That the public library maintains fiction and other recreational reading materials is meaningless in the light of the community needs. These are the two explanations supporting the thesis. (1) The "uplift" theory has proved inoperative and people apparently do not progress from, light fiction to more respectable fare. (2) The conviction that fiction and other recreational reading materials keep the middling classes from the "vicious" entertainments maintaining order in the community by giving them a harmless source of recreation has lost its significance as the modern society provides a number of choices in recreation: television is an obvious example. C. The nature of the informational needs of the community has radically changed, so radically as to require substantial changes in the outlook, collections, and services of the public library, which is :slow in adopting itself to the new social surroundings in Korea. D. 92.2 per Cent of the present frequenters of the public library are high school and college students. Since the library is to meet the existing community needs it should turn its attention to the student group, and develop the means to serve it better, not the "theoretical group of specialists who do not come to "the public library. E. In revision of the purpose of the public library, priority of each objective should be given. The priorities in the last analysis are research and information. culture, recreation in that order.

Purpose: This study was conducted to identify the factors affecting on unmet healthcare needs of married immigrant women, especially who are working in South Korea. Methods: It is designed as a cross-sectional descriptive study. We analyzed data from 8,142 working married immigrant women to the 'National Survey of Multicultural Families 2015.' Based on Andersen's health behavior model, logistic regression was conducted to determine the predictors of unmet healthcare need. Results: The prevalence of unmet healthcare needs among the subjects was 11.6%. In multivariate analysis, significant predictors of unmet needs included existence of preschooler, country of origin, period of residence in predisposing factors, monthly household income, helpful social relationship, social discrimination, Korean proficiency, working hour per week in enabling factors, and self-rated health, experience of grief or desperation in need factors. Conclusion: The association between labor-related factors and unmet healthcare needs of marriage immigrant women currently working was found from nationally representative sample. Support policies for immigrant women working more than legally defined hours and having preschooler should be supplemented to reduce unmet healthcare needs. In addition, eradicating discrimination in workplace, enlarging social relationship, and developing culturally competent nursing services tailored to health problems caused by labor are needed.
