This research has investigated the effectiveness of the family-based task centered model on the functioning of the working children's family. The importance of the present research is that for the first time in Iran, the family-based task centered model in social work interventions has been scientifically investigated and a protocol based on the task centered model for family-based intervention in working with the families of working children has been developed. The title of one of the vulnerable groups has been compiled and regulated.The current research is of an experimental type (pre-test-post-test with a control group), 30 families from the families of working children of "Talashegaran Yari Hamdel" Institute were sampled from among 50 families of the statistical population; In such a way that among the target statistical population, the families whose family performance scores were lower were determined and randomly placed in two experimental (15) and control (15) groups. Then, using the family-based task centered model, during 10 sessions, social work intervention based on the "family-based task centered model protocol" was implemented on the experimental group. Two methods of descriptive statistics and inferential statistics were used for data analysis and analysis was done using spss software.Based on the obtained results, the average scores of the experimental group after the implementation of the intervention in the family function variable and its dimensions show a significant difference.

AbstractHuman, value and moral systems are the common theme between existentialism philosophy and social work profession. Therefore, the present research has been studied for comparative investigation and the answer to the main question of the research that what is the situation and application of existentialism philosophy in the values and principles of social work. The method of the current research is fundamental-theoretical, strategy used is interpretive strategy and logical reasoning, method of collecting information is library and documents. Based on the comparison of the main concepts existentialism with the values and principles of social work, it can be said these two areas are convergent and aligned in the categories of freedom and discretion, responsibility, individuality, self-awareness, self-determination, participation and emphasis on alteration, transformability and human empowerment. These common categories are the principles that social workers should pay attention to in their interventions in order to improve the quality of life, increase adaptation and solve the human problems.

The purpose of this study was to deeply understand the Causes and consequences of sexual violence in homeless women. The method of the present study is qualitative and grounded theory and the data were collected using semi-structured deep interview technique. 19 participants were selected through theoretical and purposeful sampling and information saturation criteria. After analyzing the information, the research findings, on the causal dimension of factors such as addiction and addictive behaviors, economic dependency, daily life style and spatial domains, on the contextual dimension, such as, social exclusion, disruption of family relationships, urban disorganization neighborhoods and the escalating risk of being victimized, and finally, the interventionist dimension of the concepts of inability to pursue justice and the continuation of violence, lack of support and social policies, were extracted. The central theme or phenomenon of research is the inevitability of sexual violence in homeless women. The strategies of homeless women to deal with the current situation are adaptive and change-oriented. Along with the social work attitude, any intervention in the situation of the homeless requires a comprehensive and systematic look at the different dimensions of the problem, its needs and challenges.
