Re: stress and coping in child protection workers

[Mark Horwitz <jmmh@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have done some conceptual and empirical work in this area, based on
training work with organizations across the U.S.  I've attached a copy of a
conceptual piece and am glad to forward the empirical analysis when it is
completed in March if you're interested and also any training materials.

Citation is Smith College Studies in Social Work, 68(3), June 1998.
