Students Review the Extent of Evidence for Interventions that may increase safety for children November 14, 2007
Posted by dianedepanfilis in Child Safety.22 comments
Students in the School’s Child Welfare Research class have each conducted reviews of evidence about interventions that may increase child safety for children. These reports range in focus from primary prevention programs (like education to prevent incidents of shaken baby to interventions that might address the consequences of child maltreatment and prevent the recurrence of child maltreatment, to interventions that focus on helping adolescents in foster care prevent future maltreatment of their children). They will each post a brief version of their reports by replying to this post. I hope you join in the discussion about what “might” work to decrease the risk of child abuse and neglect and increase safety for children.
