Hello,
I'm trying to translate "informe social". It is a term used to describe a report written by a social worker in adoption cases. Could it be home study?
Thanks.

I use this term because the report is written by a social worker as you say.

Social Study
At one time I used to do these for the courts. They can have several names, but this was one of the names we used for them (Texas, USA).

Adoption Social Worker Report
I am also translating an adoption file and this is the term I was planning to use. It seems quite clear and unambiguous.
"Adoption social worker completes Adoption Social Worker Report (Word,49.5KB), Adoption social worker returns form to LAC Team..."

I really think that the 'home study' is only a part of the social worker report. In the adoption file I am translating, there is a reference to a 'visita domiciliaria' which is one part of the 'estudio social' and the 'informe social'...I believe 'visita domiciliaria' is the home study.

| Thank you for your note, but don't think that the home study (homestudy) is the interview carried out at the applicants' home. There is an interesting explanation on this page: http://international.adoption.com/foreign/international-homestudy.html |
