Hi Jon
Dr Mary Salveron from the Australian Centre for Child Protection explored in her PhD the psychological and emotional impacts of child removal on parents’ subsequent contact with their children. Mary has published this in the second edition of Working with Vulnerable Families a Partnership Approach published by Cambridge University Press and Mary can be contacted at mary.salveron@unisa.edu.au
Cheers

Subject: Re: information/studies on parental loss after infant removal by DSS
Colleagues: I am looking for studies that address the psychological and emotional loss for a parent associated with removal of her child at birth by the state (DSS). I have searched and found little about a parent’s emotional reaction/experience to loss of an infant resulting from removal by the state.
Thanks in advance for your ideas.

The not completed within 90-days is a reasonable indicator of cases not investigated and provides nationally comparable data.

Hi Aron,
Our study is quite old by now but we did exactly what you are asking for. It can provide an historical perspective.

Subject: child maltreatment investigations
Hi all,
We are looking for any reports or articles that discuss the rate at which families who are reported for maltreatment AND meet their jurisdictional criteria for investigation are actually investigated for child maltreatment (or at least the children are physically seen by a child protection worker). Again, not looking for the rate that reports are investigated. Looking for the rate that reports that should be investigated actually are investigated.
Any help would be much appreciated!
