From Judicial Intervention to Employment Independence: Supporting Migrant Children with Disabilities Involved in Offences
Abstract
This study examines how to safeguard the employment rights of migrant children with disabilities who have been involved in offenses within a multi-party collaboration mechanism. Firstly, employment support requires the joint participation of multiple stakeholders; secondly, the principle of “the best interests of the child” must be upheld; furthermore, the current lack of accommodative services within judicial social work hampers the improvement of service quality. Specific interventions should be grounded in professional assessments and thorough consultation with service recipients, and should establish clear objectives and strategies while evaluating implementation outcomes. The study further highlights the need to reflect on the tension between professional ideals and localized practice within judicial social services, as well as the systemic barriers faced by multi-professional collaboration.
