Solution Preview
Juan and Helena Hernandez is a married Latino couple who were referred to the New York Administration Child Services for abuse allegations. In this case, the social worker intervened with this family regarding understanding and observing their actions and the way they address each other. The social worker was involved in the case of Juan Jr. and his punishment. For that reason, the main element of this family which influences the way Elena and Juan address it is punishment (Plummer, Makris, Brocksen, 2014).
