PHASWANA, Kagisho e ERLANK, Elizabeth Catherine. Rendering services in child and youth care centres: experiences and challenges of social workers. Social work (Stellenbosch. Online) [online]. 2023, vol.59, n.2, pp.43-63. ISSN 2312-7198. http://dx.doi.org/10.15270/59-2-1034.
Effective social work services in child and youth care centres (CYCCs) depend on how social workers deal with the associated experiences and challenges. This study explored social workers' experiences and challenges in rendering services in CYCCs in the Tshwane municipal district. A qualitative research approach employing the phenomenological design was adopted, and in-depth semi-structured interviews were conducted. The findings confirmed that social workers have various positive and negative experiences and face multiple challenges in rendering services in CYCCs. Several suggestions to improve service delivery in CYCCs are made.
