  「社會正義」(Social Justice)乃社會工作共同認定的專業價值與使命,「倡導」(advocacy)則是實踐社會公平與社會正義的策略行動。在家庭暴力防治工作中,倡導家暴被害人的司法權益是法服處的核心目標,個案倡導(Case Advocacy)則是法服處社工重要職責,但關於社工個案倡導議題之研究卻相當缺乏。

  為瞭解法服處社工個案倡導的現況,本研究旨在透過與法服處社工個案倡導工作之相關人(法服處督導/社工、受暴婦女、司法人員),從不同角度檢視法服處社工個案倡導的原因、策略、影響因素和成果。

  為完成上述研究目的,本研究透過立意取樣,以半結構之個別訪談蒐集與7位法服處社工/督導、5位受暴婦女和5位法官的資料。其研究結果如下:

  一、社工個案倡導的原因
歸納社工、婦女與法官之意見,認為社工倡導原因為「受暴婦女難以主張其個人權益」、「受暴婦女安全受威脅」、「法條認定與審理標準不一,剝奪受暴婦女聲請的機會」、「司法人員錯用法律」、「司法人員不友善的態度」、「司法程序冗長」、以及「受暴婦女搬遷,無法收到開庭通知」等七項原因。

  二、社工採取個案倡導的策略
個案倡導策略依據衝突程度可分為無衝突策略、低度衝突策略和中度衝突策略。「無衝突策略」的內涵為提醒、討論、指導/給建議、示範、充權和促進關係;「低度衝突策略」為告知或提供資訊、諮詢/徵詢、交流,「中度衝突策略」則是爭取、說服和協商。

  三、影響社工個案倡導的因素
影響因素可分為個人、組織、關係與程序四個因素,其中個人因素又可分為社工、司法人員、受暴婦女及相對人四個部分;組織因素則包括機構與司法單位。

  四、社工個案倡導的成果
倡導成果的影響層面涵括受暴婦女、司法系統及社工本身。對受暴婦女的影響在於維護權益與增能;對司法系統的影響則是提昇法官審理的品質與速度、改變不友善的態度與程序、促使對個案權益的重視、以及肯定社工在司法場域的重要;對社工的影響為獲得司法與個案的認可與信任,以及學習更多倡導方法。

  根據研究發現,研究者分別對「實務工作者」、「機構」、「社工教育」、「政府」及「未來研究者」提出相關建議。
