The objective of this DAPT research is to understand: (1) what the benefits of creating a DAPT are by analyzing what asset protections are provided, depending on the governing state; and (2) what ethical and legal concerns are presented with varying DAPT statutory schemes that ought to be considered by (a) the states enacting these laws; and (b) individuals who are establishing their own DAPTs. In general, it can be determined that the main benefit of creating a DAPT is the asset protection provided and its potential dissuasion of creditors pursuing litigation. During examination of the differing DAPT statutory schemes in the first chapter, it becomes evident that some states provide for more asset protections than exceptions to such, creating both legal and ethical concerns. The second chapter discusses the potential legal and ethical complications that DAPTs present by reviewing and analyzing current case law. These complications include the improper application of legislation, divorce, child support, creation to avoid current known claims, loan securitization, bankruptcy, crossing legal jurisdictions, and trust law changes and amendments. Chapter 3 then uses the potential complications to urge states to reflect on their moral duties when establishing DAPT legislation and encourages individuals to review the consequences they may have when creating a DAPT based on their personal situation. Concludingly, a DAPT is a helpful asset protection tool. However, legislation ought to have a set standard for exclusions from protection for division of marital assets, child support claims, creation of and transfers to a DAPT in an attempt to deprive active known creditors from collecting on their rightful judgements, loan securitization, and state and federal government claims.

I conducted an oral history project of five women with journeys in the Christian faith who had experience working with asylum seekers and refugees in the Phoenix metropolitan area. I explore with this project the perceptions of the helping relationship through the stories of these women and how their beliefs about their faith and work inform each other to pursue meaningful connections for the benefit of others.

The importance of social work lies in the ability of individuals, families, and communities to thrive. It is important to note that social work encompasses a wide range of professions. However, this creative project will examine its different dimensions, specifically within the field of criminal justice. The purpose of this thesis project is to promote social work as a profession and explore its growing impact on the criminal justice system. As part of this effort, it is also intended to dispel the myth that social workers work exclusively in child protection agencies. Viewers will be introduced to exciting opportunities for meaningful change at the emerging intersection of social work and criminal justice, which is becoming increasingly prevalent in American society. This project will also highlight how negative media (news and documentaries like Gabriel Fernandez on Netflix) about social workers employed in the DCS system do not accurately portray current circumstances. This will be accomplished through a short video/documentary-style project that interviews social workers and social service workers employed in the criminal justice field. An interview will consist of questions designed to dispel myths about social workers and promote the diversity of the profession. The purpose of this is to provide an ‘on-the-ground’ perspective of real opportunities in the community, including descriptions of various occupations and the mission of agencies that employ at the cross-section of social work and criminal justice. This is done to enhance the viewers' perception of the field and give them the opportunity to experience real-life situations.

Within the realm of parenting, there is research about a distinct stage entitled emerging adulthood that encompasses biopsychosocial development between the ages of 18 and 25. The research study seeks to answer the questions: how do current parenting practices influence emerging adult mental health, and what adjustments must be made to improve upon these relationships? Past studies have demonstrated that there is a relationship between the developmental period of emerging adulthood, which is characterized by identity formation itself, and the mental health of both emerging adults and their parents. However, upon reviewing the literature on emerging adulthood, it was revealed that there is a gap in regard to how to parent adult children and foster a positive relationship. While the goal is to explore this gap, the research team is additionally seeking to utilize new information to create a parenting course that promotes positive adjustments to the current relationship between emerging adults and their parents. To explore this, the research team conducted emerging adult surveys, asking participants to analyze their current connection with their parents' practices and the effects they have on their mental health. Additionally, surveys and interviews were done with Licensed Clinical Social Workers (LCSWs) to bolster the evidence-based methods that this population uses to support emerging adults.
