<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>In response to the 2003 CAPTA amendments that require states
to have procedures in place to refer children under age 3 who are substantiated
for maltreatment to early intervention services, our state is implementing
standardized developmental and mental health screening using the Ages and
Stages Questionnaire and ASQ-Socio-emotional version. Agencies are encouraged
to screen not only children delineated in CAPTA, but to expand the screening to
children under age 5 who are receiving child welfare services. I am interested
to know if other states are doing something similar to this and if so, what. I
would be interested to know if others have evaluated or are evaluating their
initiative, and results. I haven&#8217;t been able to get a good sense of this
anywhere I look. &nbsp;<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
