Abstract(s)
Os casos de crianças e jovens em risco/perigo dizem respeito a um aspeto que está a aumentar no nosso país e que necessita de ser estudado, não apenas referindo fatores que levam à sinalização de situações pelas entidades competentes e ao processo de intervenção, mas também para perceber os casos de sucesso e insucesso quando os processos já foram cessados, analisando a importância dos fatores de risco e de proteção no pesar de sucesso ou insucesso, sendo este o objetivo principal desta investigação. Neste sentido o estudo insere-se numa investigação quantitativa e qualitativa, sendo que a primeira modalidade se destaca, com o estudo descritivo como opção metodológica.
Inicialmente procedeu-se a uma revisão bibliográfica alusiva ao tema, seguida da descrição da metodologia utilizada. A amostra é composta por 25 processos de promoção e proteção de crianças e jovens em risco (e respetivas famílias) já cessados da cidade de Bragança, sendo que consistiu numa amostragem não probabilística. A técnica de recolha de dados utilizada foi a análise documental de documentos escritos de acesso restrito e confidencial. Os dados recolhidos foram analisados de forma qualitativa através da categorização das questões abertas, presentes na grelha de recolha de dados, recorrendo-se posteriormente ao SPSS, sendo feita, posteriormente, uma análise crítica dos mesmos.
Relativamente às principais conclusões do estudo podemos referir que a família, bem como as relações desenvolvidas com a criança são um dos principais fatores para colmatar ou até mesmo solucionar o risco existente. As atitudes e os comportamentos do menor são determinantes para o crescimento e para a mudança da situação à qual a criança estava exposta. A escola é também uma das instituições considerada pelos técnicos como integradora, pois apoia os menores quando a família não os assiste.
Desta forma, os fatores protetores parecem ser um elemento chave para o desfecho de processos de promoção e proteção de menores em risco. A intervenção técnica tem o intuito de fortalecer os fatores protetores e eliminar os fatores de risco que fizerem com que o processo surgisse.
The cases of children and young people at risk/in danger relate to an aspect that is increasing in our country and needs to be studied, not only referring to factors that lead to signalling situations by the authorities and to a resolution process, but also for understanding the success and failure of terminated cases. Analysing the importance of risk factors and protection and the weight they exert on the success or failure of a case is the main objective of this investigation. In this sense the study is part of a quantitative and qualitative investigation, where the first part is highlighted with the descriptive study as the methodological option. Bibliographic research on the subject was initially conducted, followed by a description of the methodology used. The sample comprised 25 closed cases of promotion and protection of children and young people at risk (and their respective families) from the city of Bragança, and consisted of a non-probabilistic sample. The technique of data collection used was the documentary analysis of restricted and confidential written documents. The data collected was qualitatively analysed by categorizing the open questions present on the data collection grid. A critical analysis of the data was later conducted using SPSS software. Regarding the main conclusions of the study, we can state that family as well as the relationships developed with the child are one of the main factors that can correct or even resolve an existing risk. The attitudes and behaviours of the minor are, understandably, crucial to the growth and change of the situation to which the child was exposed. School is also one of the institutions considered by experts as an integrator because supports the minors when family does not assist them. Thus, protection factors seem to be a key element to resolve cases of promotion and protection of minors at risk. Technical intervention has the intention of strengthening protection factors and eliminating the risk factors that originated the case.
