Child and adolescent functional assessment scale : predicting foster care placement outcomesGrenier, Jennifer. January 2006 (has links)
This study explored whether the Child and Adolescent Functional Assessment Scale (CAFAS) scores of children in the care of Family and Children's Services of Renfrew County might predict foster placement outcomes. A file review was completed for 268 children, all of whom had at least one set of CAFAS scores completed, to obtain data regarding the number and types of placements they experienced. Placement categories were ranked -- in order from best alternate care option to least-desired -- by 11 agency employees. These rankings were used to calculate total weighted placements for each child as a measure of the child's foster placement experience. In regression analyses, including age, gender, and reasons for placement, CAFAS scores were found to be the most significant predictor of the number and nature of placements experienced by a child. This relationship suggests that there might be value in using CAFAS as a placement matching tool in a child welfare setting.

Growth management : the Toronto and Seattle experiencesGatti, Maria D. 11 1900 (has links)
Increasingly, where, how and when growth occurs has far reaching consequences
for the health of the city and planet. In the past, many growth decisions have been made
at the local level largely within land use terms. In today's highly interrelated and ever-expanding
urban regions, it is recognized that these decisions must be made in a more
comprehensive and consistent intergovernmental manner if the long-term health of all
communities is to be protected. The planning structures as defined by the legislative and
governance frameworks that are in place in many cities often do not address the need for
improved growth management.
Some state/provincial governments are taking an active role in determining the
regional and local planning framework in which the management of growth takes place.
In Canada, many of the initiatives are a refinement of existing planning legislation and
regional governance structures. In the United States, many of the initiatives are the result
of growth management legislation. This study explores the positive and negative
attributes of Ontario's Planning Act and Washington State's Growth Management Act with
respect to adoption and implementation of a regional growth strategy in the Greater
Toronto Area and the Central Puget Sound Area and in facilitating or challenging the
efforts of the cities of Toronto and Seattle in realizing their growth goals and objectives.
Data sources for this study were libraries, government offices, and individuals
active in municipal and intergovernmental relations. The focus of the data search was to
determine what were the major urban issues facing Toronto and Seattle and whether the
planning system was designed to provide effective solutions and expand their capacities to
create the results they desire.
The study contends that planning legislation can play an effective role in growth
management if it embodies three essential characteristics. Firstly, it must facilitate the
adoption and implementation of robust official or comprehensive plans. The plans must
contain clear goals about the distribution, location and quality of future growth and
explicitly detail the steps required to reach these goals. While the plans produced must
integrate all planning functions related to the use of land to allow the development of cities
that are economically, socially and environmentally balanced, the integration of land use
and transportation planning is a prerequisite of effective growth management.
Secondly, the local official or comprehensive plans that are adopted must be tied to
a regional plan that expresses the collective aspirations and responsibilities of the various
cities that constitute today's city-regions. The actions of local as well as senior
governments must be consistent with the vision and policies contained in the regional plan.
Thirdly, the legislation must be effective in promoting the development of
intergovernmental planning relationships that allow all parties to continually learn and act
strategically to realize the local and regional visions. The implementation of the plans is
particularly dependent on the development of complementary governance and financial
arrangements.

The St. Clair case and the regulation of the obscene in pre-World War One OntarioCampbell, Lyndsay Mills 05 1900 (has links)
In 1912 in Toronto the Congregationalist lay minister, Robert B. St. Clair was arrested and convicted of
circulating obscene literature, after he published and distributed an explicit description of a performance
called The Darlings of Paris that played at a local burlesque house called the Star Theatre. St. Clair's
experiences and its aftermath provide a lens through which to view the problem that the regulation of
obscenity posed for moral reformers in Toronto during this period. Adopting a broad understanding of the
concept of regulation and paying close attention to the discourses evident in a variety of primary sources,
this thesis examines the St. Clair case against its religious, literary, social and legal backdrop. It discusses
the origins of Canadian obscenity law and contrasts the regulation of the obscene in Canada during this
period with the situation in England and the United States. This thesis shows that the ability of moral
reformers in Toronto to regulate obscenity, and the Toronto stage in particular, was on the decline by 1913.
Doubt was creeping into legal and extra-legal discourses that the words obscene, indecent and immoral had
absolutely certain meanings, but there was still substantial certainty that art was morally uplifting. The
sense that art could have immoral, indecent or pornographic aspects, and could therefore be difficult to
distinguish from obscenity, had not yet entered Canada's, and particularly Ontario's, legal sensibility, but it
was on its way.

Selected aspects of the experience of being an Ontario Registered Midwife practice partnerWallace, Katherine 24 April 2011 (has links)
In 1994, Ontario midwives became regulated independent providers of midwifery provincially and organized themselves into practices. At each practice two or more midwives act as partners responsible for overseeing a practice as an independent business. The purpose of this descriptive exploratory study was to describe selected aspects of the experiences of being an Ontario midwifery partner, including the benefits and drawbacks and how decisions are made and conflicts are resolved. Convenience sampling was used to recruit nine participants who met inclusion criteria. Semi-structured interviews were conducted via telephone. Findings revealed partnership benefits and drawbacks, decision-making and conflict resolution strategies and indicated that midwives’ experiences of partnership emerged from having been an associate midwife or past partner. Limitations include a small sample size, a novice researcher and telephone interviewing. Recommendations for further studies emphasized how to best prepare midwives for partnership and the impact of partner workload imbalance on intra-partnership relationships. / 2010 - 10

Evaluation of Miscanthus Winter Hardiness and Yield Potential in OntarioRosser, Ben 18 May 2012 (has links)
Winter losses challenge the adoption of Miscanthus as a biomass crop in northern regions. This study was conducted to investigate the winter survival and yield potential of Miscanthus in Ontario. Twenty Miscanthus entries representing diploid M. sacchariflorus x M. sinensis hybrids, triploid M. x giganteus hybrids and diploid M. sinensis were established in 2008 at three locations in Ontario. First year winter survival ranged from 8-100% in Leamington, 0-100% in Elora and 0-89% in Kemptville. No difference in winter survival potential of the three species groups was observed in Leamington or Elora, but a diploid hybrid was significantly greater than all others in Kemptville. Establishment year culm height and basal circumference, and second year spring regrowth timing and biomass yield were associated with winter survival. Overall, winter severity increased from Leamington to Kemptville. The diploid hybrids were most winter hardy, followed by M. x giganteus types, followed by M. sinensis, though all had equivalent survival potential in Leamington and Elora. / Mendel Biotechnology
