Sociale netwerken en sociale steun bij jongeren: een taxatieprocedure voor de jeugdhulpverlening

  • Published:
Kind en adolescent

semenvatting

Sociale ondersteuning is van invloed op het welzijn van mensen. In de jeugdhulpverlening worden pogingen gedaan om sociale netwerken en steunmogelijkheden van jongeren positief te beïnvloeden. Om gericht te kunnen interveniëren moet eerst bepaald worden hoe het netwerk van de betrokken jongeren eruit ziet en welke steun leden ervan wel en niet kunnen bieden. In deze bijdrage wordt een werkwijze die Tracy en Whittaker ontwikkelden om netwerkkenmerken en steunmogelijkheden van cliënten te achterhalen, beschreven.

Summary

Social support influences the well–being of people. In the field of youth care, attemps are made to positively influence the social networks of the clients concerned, as well as their resources for support. In order to be able to intervene sufficiently well, one first needs to gain an insight into the nature of the network of these minors, and into the supportive qualities of their network members. This article describes a method developed by Tracy and Whittaker for assessing network and support characteristics.
