Outline of Final Research Achievements

The current social work practiced in the women protective institution changed greatly in comparison with social work before a DV prevention law was enforced. In the past, workers managed the life of women who lived in an institution strictly. Current workers always think about ways to meet the needs of women who are in the institution. And there are women having a trouble about their sexuality a lot in the same way as old days. Particularly, women with the learning disability may be made to do sex industry by force. When workers take care of women with the learning disability, workers often control her with care.
