An exploratory study was conducted at a Social Services Department in Mitchell's Plain on sensitively exploring the feelings and experiences of single parents whose children were found in need of care. A qualititative approach was used, with data being gathered from focus group sessions and semi-structured interviews. Some of the majory findings focussed on the needs of single parents as well as the re-intergration of the child within the biological family composition. Certain perceived reasons for child removals were also highlighted by single parents. In respect of a parent support programme single parents felt a sense of solidarity within the focus group session. 2014-10-02T10:00:43Z 2014-10-02T10:00:43Z 2002 Master Thesis Masters MSocSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/7923 eng application/pdf Department of Social Development Faculty of Humanities University of Cape Town
