Abstract:
This qualitative study uses grounded theory to examine 38 Hispanic caregivers' perceptions of preventive service at six urban community-based Agencies. The findings show caregivers seek an open personal relationship with workers, value a worker's ability to speak Spanish, respond well to group treatment, place a strong value on family, have deficits in the area of social supports, and struggle to meet the goals of preventive service treatment due to socioeconomic pressures. The article discusses implications for treatment.
