Re: No Services for Substantiated Child Maltreatment

Walter,
According to my analysis of NCANDS data 95-97, in some cases post-investigative services begin before the investigation is completed.  At least according to the disposition date and the services date.  I haven't looked extensively at what services are provided, but I would imagine that the provision of foster care services would be one example.
