Community centers have been public facilities for the welfare and conveniences for the residents since 1999. Currently, the numbers of community centers meet the demands in quantity, but they do not satisfy the quality service needs for the improved life style of residents and the activation of local community. Therefore, the purposes of this research are to find out the current status, types and characters of facilities for the quality improvement of community centers. As the research methods, 'home pages of community centers', 'gujung backseo' were used, and '40 case studies' were completed. Case studies were done by observation and research on the actual conditions. The case works were done between July- September in 2008. Followings are the results of the study; 1. Area measurements of the community centers are being increased since 2000. 2. Complex facility types of community centers are mainly public administrative facilities (community center)+public administrative facilities of mixed type. 3. There are three architectural types of community centers: horizontal type, vertical type, mixed type. 4. There are three classified entrance types for the community centers. 5. There are twelve classified facility types for the community centers. Community centers are usually mixed with diverse facilities, especially welfare facilities and cultural facilities. Proper community center types which contain the functional characters and varieties of facilities should be developed, and these active centers should be used conveniently by residents, thus, further study is required in this regard.

전국 사회복지관의 조직 사명문을 분석함으로써 조직의 정체성과 가치에 대해 실제적 이해를 도모하고자 하였다. 조직 사명문에 나타난 사회복지관의 표적성, 방향 및 전략, 이미지에 대해서 분석하기 위해서 전국 385곳의 사회복지관의 조직 사명문을 수집하였다. 분석은 NVivo 10 프로그램을 활용하였다. 전체 수집된 단어수는 1,401개였으며, 조직의 표적성에 해당되는 대상 448개(32.0%)의 단어, 문제 51개(3.6%)의 단어, 방향성에 해당되는 단어 118개(8.4%), 전략에 해당되는 단어 545개(38.9%), 이미지에 해당되는 단어 239개(17.1%)였다. 구체적으로 표적성에 해당되는 대상은 지역주민, 지역사회, 공동체가 높게 나타났고, 문제는 지역문제, 빈곤, 소외였다. 전략성에 해당되는 방향성은 복지공동체/마을, 사회복지, 역량강화가 높게 나타났고, 전략은 형성/구축, 나눔/섬김, 개선(발)/발전/향상이었다. 조직사명문에 나타난 이미지는 복지관, 우리, 전문기관, 이웃 순이었다. 이번 사회복지관의 조직 사명문을 분석함으로써 사회복지관은 '지역성'을 기반으로 설립된 기관으로서의 정체성을 명확히 보여주었다. 표적으로 삼은 문제와 대상, 방향성 모두 지역사회와 관련한 단어들의 분포가 단연 높게 나타났다. 본 연구에서 사회복지관의 조직사명문의 구성요소 및 특성만을 분석하였는데, 조직 사명문이 조직의 성과와 실제 어떠한 관련성을 가지고 있는지에 대한 분석은 실시하지 못한 한계를 가지고 있으며, 이에 대한 보완은 추후 연구에서 발전되기를 제안한다.

This study aimed to examine the direct effects of relationships with parents, peers, and community child center teachers on the school adjustment of low-income adolescents attending community child centers and the indirect effects mediated through adolescents' resilience. The second-term panel data from the fourth-year Community Child Center Survey was used to analyze 198 adolescents (103 boys, 95 girls) who were first graders at middle schools. SPSS 20.0 and AMOS 20.0 were used to analyze the data through structural equation modeling. The results of the study were as follows: Parental monitoring and peer trust had direct effects on the adolescents' school adjustment, while satisfaction with community child center teachers did not. Parental monitoring, peer trust, and satisfaction with community child center teachers had indirect effects on adolescents' school adjustment mediated through resilience. The school adjustment of low-income adolescents has received attention from both researchers and politicians. The results of this study are notable in that both the important relationships and resilience of low-income adolescents can significantly contribute to their school adjustment in their first year at middle school. Given the developmental needs of low-income adolescents, interventions for school adjustment that consider adolescents' important social contexts and psychological characteristics should be developed.

We examined dietary habits, food intakes, health status, and school and community life of meal skipping children, and investigated factors predicting meal skipping of children. A sample was composed of 944 children in low-income families who were provided with public meal service. The sample was obtained from the Survey of Meal Service for Poor Children conducted by the Korea Institute for Health and Social Affairs in 2007. Meal skipping was significantly associated with a lower nutrition and health status, and poor school performance of children, as hypothesized. The school age of child, family structure, region, job of caretaker, concern about diet, and the child's visit to welfare center significantly predicted frequency of meal skipping. We suggested a few implications for community practice to reduce meal skipping of children.

Previous psychiatric history and, number of counseling service used were significantly positively associated with the PHQ-2 score and the duration of isolation was significantly negatively associated with the PHQ-2 score. Conclusion : These results showed that depression and anxiety symptoms were more prevalent in COVID-19 patients at the community treatment center than in the general population.

This aim in this study is to investigate the meaning of case management and management in general from the case manger's perspective, as well as case mangers' abilities and networks. We also propose a development direction for the establishment of a local integrated family-centered community management system. Regarding the collection of qualitative data, focus group interviews (FGIs) were conducted with 11 case managers from social welfare organizations in the city of C. The interviews consisted of open-ended questions in the following four categories: understanding of case management, case managers' abilities, case management environments, and local community networks. According to the interview analysis, a total of 16 subcategories in 9 categories and 4 domains have been identified. Due to the ambiguity regarding the concept of case management, case management was completely dependent upon individual case managers' abilities. In particular, family-centered case management was found to exist in several organizations in the same region. In terms of case management environments, the following problems have been observed: absence of related departments and staff, confusion regarding performance evaluation standards, limitations in sharing information among organizations, limitations in resource exploration and management, redundant support, and an uncomfortable relationship between the private and public sector. Horizontal exchange and cooperation among organizations are essential to establish and facilitate a local community network. After all, to establish a local family-centered community case management system, the roles of a Healthy Families Center and a Multi-cultural Family Support Center as parts of a family-centered transfer system should be fully emphasized in local society, and the performance of family-centered case management should be developed.
