A Report on the Protective Services

Child protective services (CPS) is a government agency located in many states across the United States that helps children stay away from harm and abuse. Child protective services and its agencies plays a big role in society. Children of all ages are assaulted and most of the times by a dearest loved one. Child abuse is defined as any type of neglect upon a child including mentally, physically, and sexually.

There are many efforts that are made each day to ensure safety of children living in the state of Mississippi. The MS Department of Child Protection Services (MDCPS) is at the center of every community’s child protection efforts. MDCPS conducts initial assessments of reports of child abuse and/or neglect. The agency also provides other prevention services to children and families where maltreatment has occurred or is likely to occur. The adaptation of these services examines underlying conditions. These underlying conditions consist of drug and alcohol abuse, sexual molestation, poverty and cultural beliefs. MDCPS utilizes tools such as Comprehensive Family Assessments (CFA) and Family Service

To better understand the background of the contrasting views, we must look at how the fire service has developed around

One could say the Fire Service possess one unique quality about how it operates daily and that is the culture and the community that lies within every department. Culture is defined as defined by Miriam-Webster “the integrated pattern of human knowledge, belief, and behavior that depends upon the capacity for learning and transmitting knowledge to succeeding generations (Definition of Culture, 2017, para. 5).” The many diverse aspects of each department in still’s a variety of cultural differences separating one department from the next. At the heart of all departments, fire service culture is the men and women who work and train hard to serve their communities as prescribed by the Fire Chief. The Fire Chief, however,

Many department, including BCoFD, are looking for different solutions to help fix this tissue. The goal of this research project is to conduct a needs assessment and provide recommendations to the Baltimore County Fire Department for an outline of a curriculum for a CP course based off the findings of the needs assessment. Extant data was collected by using inclusion and exclusion criteria requirements in the data collection tools from both ImageTrend and National Fire Incident Reporting System (NFRIS) for non-emergency calls. In 2014, BCoFD initiated a specific policy for non-emergency responses that was collected through EMED reports in ImageTrend. During that year, the number of Non-Emergency Responses came to 8,590. In 2016, non-emergency responses came to a total of 12,102, almost 3,500 calls more from 2014. As of March 30th, 2017, the total non-emergency call responses were at 3,615 and continuing to grow. Not only non-emergency calls are climbing, but the total call volume for BCoFD is increasing more and more each year. Since 2013, there has been an average of 5,705 increase calls each

There are different types of businesses, for example, some use monopolies, trust and pools, while other eliminate competition for higher prices. As stated in “Progressive reformers regarded regulation as a cure for all sorts of socioeconomic and political problems” , “The Sherman Act of 1890 attempted to outlaw the restriction of competition by large companies that co-operated with rivals to fix outputs, prices, and market shares, initially through pools and later through trusts” , meaning, competition is the

*It was justified to the full extent to characterized the industrial leaders of the late nineteenth century as "robber barons". People high up in business such as Andrew Carnegie and Rockefeller were proven to be robber barons by most working class and middle class Americans. They earned their wealth through questionable ways and through intimidation. They tried to ease their robber baron reputation by donating large amounts of money to various public buildings and causes. However, this attempt failed when many citizens realized that these donations gave society no long term benefits.

It is contended by those interested in trusts that they tend to cheapen production and diminish the price of the article to the consumer. . . . Trusts are speculative in their purpose and formed to make money. Once they secure control of a given line of business, they are masters of the situation and can dictate to the two great classes with which they deal—the producer of the raw material and the consumer of the finished product. They limit the price of the raw material so as to impoverish the producer, drive him to a single market, reduce the price of every class of labor connected with the trade, throw out of employment large numbers of persons who had before been engaged in a meritorious calling and finally . . . they increase the price to the

Monopolies are quite dangerous economically, and are usually broken up by the federal government, with only two exceptions- electricity, and gas. These are modern examples. A monopoly is the economic term for when a company that makes a product has no competition, and can raise the prices as high as they want. For example, the most obvious and powerful monopoly of the industrial revolution was the railroad monopoly. They made money quite quickly as a shipping company, and destroyed any and all competition as the only transcontinental railroad at the time. It’s leader, Cornelius Vanderbilt came to be considered one of the most powerful people of all time, due to his control over who he shipped for.

The importance of accountability in the fire service is paramount. Whether it is being on time to school or handing my accountability tag to the officer at the front of a burning building, the imprint that the fire academy made on me with regards to accountability is prodigious. I do my best every day to be accountable for myself because I know that if I cannot hold myself accountable I cannot be a leader in the classroom, on the athletic field, or in my community. Although I have not been in the fire service for a long time, it is abundantly clear that helping my community and helping people are not always invigorating experiences. Even though the majority of calls are false alarms or routine incidents, it is importance that the community feels safe. Being a part of the fire department allows me to instill a sense of security in people because they know that even on the worst day of their life someone will be there to help them. Even on the worst day of someone’s life he or she can smile because of a simple action of either saving pictures or helping them cover valuable items when water is being sprayed into their home. I have learned that simple acts of kindness can completely change someone’s mood and I have implemented this

Aviii Explain the roles of different agencies and professionals that are involved in safeguarding individuals

While dangerous work like firefighting often requires decisive and quick action against one of nature’s most destructive elements, do the inherent risks of firefighting justify risky decision-making by officials? In this dangerous and often daring line of work, when is the line between protecting the public and protecting public employees crossed – and who is responsible when that line is crossed?

To maintain high status, people monopolize and manipulate both the financial market and the talent market, exacerbating the social inequality. According to Stiglitz, there is a tendency that people gradually pay more attention to strengthening the monopoly power: “Indeed, as we shall shortly see, some of the most important innovations in business in the last three decades have centered not on making the economy more efficient but on how better to ensure monopoly power or how better to circumvent government regulations intended to align social returns and private rewards”(Stiglitz 398). The word “monopoly” means the company has exclusive control over the supply of a commodity when the market is not competitive. Stiglitz declares that business people focus more on how to utilize

Child protection gets involved for many reasons such as: your children not going to school, somebody calling them on you, or if you're going through some personal issues. A child in need is usually a child that's left alone, has been abused or sees abused between parents.
