Re: Caseworker Continuity in CW



<x-html><html>
You can find a description of the SEED program in Alameda County, CA,
which has adopted the model of a consistent child welfare worker from
time of case disposition to closure, in the April/May 2002 issue of Zero
to Three, which you can find online
(<a href="http://www.zerotothree.org - follow the link to the professional journal/" eudora="autourl"><font color="#0000FF"><u>www.zerotothree.org
- follow the link to the professional journal</a></u></font>). The
article discusses some of the challenges with implementing this approach.
There was an evaluation conducted during the program's pilot phase,
however, the article authors were not confident in the evaluation
results, due to some data collection challenges, and opted not to publish
them. You might contact them for further info.<br><br>

<blockquote type=cite class=cite cite>I am wondering if anyone is aware
of unpublished evaluations of service delivery models in child welfare
that allow the same caseworker to follow a family throughout the service

foster care services into different &quot;programs&quot;).&nbsp; Any
studies that tie caseworker continuity to client outcomes would be of
particular interest.&nbsp; Thank you.<br><br>

April 2003 marks the 20th anniversary of the first presidential proclamation of Child Abuse 
Prevention Month.  In an effort to promote greater visibility of child abuse prevention 
activities for 2003-2004, a Prevention Month website, www.calib.com/nccanch/prevention, 
was developed.  The website features informational resources designed to help promote 
child abuse prevention activities, including the following newly released publications: 

2003 Child Abuse Prevention Community Resource packet and 
accompanying poster  were designed to promote child abuse prevention activities 
in April and throughout the year.  The packet describes the scope of the problem 
and identifies what individuals and organizations can do to prevent child abuse and 
neglect.  

Emerging Practices in the Prevention of Child Abuse and Neglect presents 
the outcomes from a 2-year project to identify programs and initiatives for the 
prevention of child maltreatment.  The publication includes a literature review and a 
peer review of selected programs. 

Child Maltreatment 2001 is the twelfth annual publication of data collected from 
the National Child Abuse and Neglect Data System for calendar year 2001. It 
provides complete national information about child maltreatment including 
information about victims, perpetrators, fatalities and services. 

To order free copies of any of these publications, contact the National Clearinghouse on 
Child Abuse and Neglect Information via telephone at (800) 394-3366 or e-mail at 
prevention@calib.com.
