There is a national epidemic of social worker turnover. Nationally, 30-45% of child welfare staff leave within 2 years.
Why It Matters: Turnover Impacts Outcomes Negatively.
Federal Child & Family Reviews cited “workforce deficiencies” including
turnover as a reason states did not meet at least one or more of their measures.
The National Center on Crime and Delinquency (2006) determined that there was
a direct correlation between high turnover rates and higher rates of maltreatment
reoccurrence after three, six and twelve months. Child welfare agencies with a
turnover rate exceeding 15 percent had a six-month recurrence rate (an important
“yardstick” in the federal Child and Family Service Reviews) that was 125 percent
higher than those with turnover rates below 8.5 percent
Flower, McDonald and Sumski (2005) discovered that an increase in the number of
direct practitioners decreases the chances of timely permanence for children. For
example, within a cohort of children who had only one social worker, 74.5% achieved
timely permanence, with the percentage drastically dropping to 17.5% if the child had
two social workers. In fact, there is negative impact on both length of stay in foster
care and achieving reunification if multiple practitioners are involved with the family
(Ryan, Garnier, Zyphur & Zhai, 2006).
The Parents as Teachers Fit Within State Home Visiting PlansParents as Teachers
Parents as Teachers is an approved home visiting model meeting the evidence-based criteria of the Maternal, Infant, Early Childhood Home Visiting program (MIECHV) and is uniquely positioned to help states achieve the outcomes of this federal program. A March 4 webinar highlighted the resources Parents as Teachers has to support the development of state home visiting plans and the process for acquiring the approval to implement letter from Parents as Teachers.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
