The Family Of Woodstock, Inc. Case Study

It is important for programs in which families attend be diverse, locally accessible and promote social justice. This allows growth for children, youth and families to develop in the right setting and gain strength and resilience. Everyone has a different story and having programs that are specific to one group of people that share something in common gives those in the program the opportunity to develop. The Military Family Resource Centre is a prime example of a program that uses the strength-based approach to help clients where they are in life. This is done by using social location (which is groups people belong to based on their location in society), diversity and social justice within the programs offered. There is always

The Family of Woodstock went from helping teens who were runaways and homeless due to their situations, to now dealing with young adults and children who come from divorces and “blended families.” In the 90’s when divorces became more of the norm, more children and young adults were leaving home, because they felt the younger, newer siblings were replacing them. Also some of these blended families still had the same problems that were faced before, domestic violence, sexual assault, and financial restraints. There are now Midway Programs open in Ellenville, New York and also Kingston, New York. Both these Midway programs are run by the Family of Woodstock, and provide the same services. These two homes have six adolescents each, ranging from ages 16-20. They are provided with the chance to earn their GED and also further their education to college. These adolescents are taught daily living responsibilities, daily living expenses, how to live in a co-ed home, and also to live in the world as an active member of society. There have been many changes made to the Family of Woodstock agency due to growing population, word of mouth, and also changes in society.

However, Amanda’s family has potential to thrive despite these challenges if they are resilient (Black & Krishnakumar, 1998).

Probably one of the most important issues when it comes to Family/Community Partnership is trying to get the families/community involved in what we are doing. By engaging parents, it will help us to see what we are lacking and what we need to do in order to have our families fully engaged. I feel that if our families/communities are not engaged in our program then we need to reevaluate in order to encourage their participation. By reevaluating our program we can further access what we need to work on. If parents/communities feel that they are not valued as part of our team, they won’t engage in our program. Both the parents and the community play a big role in the education of our children. Parents are their first teachers and the communities have valuable resources for the children.

In conclusion, the Family of Woodstock has moved forward utilizing their talents and abilities to see changes which move their agency forward by providing more services than originally planned and utilizing their successful outcomes as the pivotal point.

Every memory of the summer of 1969 is connected to, in one way or another, the historical event, Woodstock. The festival could not have left more of an impact on the “hippie” generation anymore than it did those three days of music and peace. The generation of the time wanted nothing more than what they got out of Woodstock. Today, people still look back on the festival and think of how well it made history without the expectance of doing so. Woodstock, one of the most important cultural events of the 20th century, combined iconic musical acts with interesting social behavior.

Everyone has a family. Whether it is a family by blood or a family you claim to have through social interactions. There are many ways to create a family unit. Some are big and some are small. Each one is different and unique in their own way. The quality and nature of family life is completely determined on how you personally want to examine it as. You can either have a strong and healthy family life, or you can have a weak and unhealthy family life. Family life education is one way to help those week families turn into strong and healthy families. By focusing on the healthy aspects of family functioning within a family system, we will see an improvement on the quality and nature of the family’s life.
