The document discusses the Strengthening Families initiative, which aims to promote optimal child development and prevent child abuse. It does this through a framework focused on building protective factors in families and communities, rather than targeting individual risks. The initiative started in early childhood programs but has expanded to other fields. Research identified factors reducing abuse and how programs build these. Pilot programs showed how policy and practice must change to implement the model statewide through partnerships. Now many states and organizations support the approach through leadership teams coordinating efforts across early childhood and social services.

Strengthening Families and ECCS (1.9.09)
This document discusses efforts to strengthen families and connect them to early childhood comprehensive systems (ECCS). It describes how Strengthening Families began as a search for a new approach to child abuse prevention that is universally available and focused on protective factors like parental resilience and social connections. The research identified programs that build these factors. Implementation includes training, action planning, funding, and professional development to support protective factors and quality early care. Strengthening Families networks in 26 states and can contribute to ECCS by defining family support and bringing partners together around common goals like child abuse prevention.

Family driven care 2015 final
This document discusses family driven care in children's mental health systems. It provides an overview of the history and development of family driven care from the 1970s to present day. Key aspects covered include a definition of family driven care as families having primary decision making roles. Guiding principles are outlined such as shared decision making and ensuring family voices are present. Best practices for implementing a family driven culture are also discussed, such as including families in policy, planning, and evaluation. The impact of family driven care is said to be families feeling more invested and connected to programs and systems when they are equal partners.

2 Integrating Child Protection and Community Engagement, Sierra Leone, Kathle...The Impact Initiative
This document summarizes research in Sierra Leone that tested a community-driven approach to strengthening child protection. The intervention engaged communities to identify and address local child protection issues, focusing on reducing teenage pregnancy. This led to increased contraceptive access and use, stronger community-health linkages, and social effects like reduced school dropout. The approach influenced national child protection policy and showed the benefits of respecting both formal and informal systems through community-driven action.Should Parental Authority Be Restricted And How
The document discusses whether and how parental authority should be restricted to fulfill the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC). It examines the evidence around child abuse risk factors and interventions. Restricting parental authority effectively requires empowering children and communities through education, advocacy, and legislation, while also supporting families. The appropriate level of restriction depends on social and cultural contexts, the child's evolving capacities, and ensuring their rights and protection.
Evidence Into Practice: Lessons from Parenting Support
1) The UK government has significantly increased investment in parenting support programs since 2006, including through Sure Start children's centers and schools providing extended services, over 3,500 parent support advisors, and family intervention projects in every local authority area.
2) Evidence shows the importance of parenting interventions in changing behaviors and the critical role of practitioner skills in delivering effective interventions. A small number of evidence-based programs initially dominated the national debate.
3) There is now a wide range of parenting practice approaches in use across the UK. Mechanisms are needed to improve program choice, fidelity to proven practices, and understanding of effective practices where evidence is still limited.

Early childhood home visiting programs can help address the needs of young homeless children and families by targeting services to high-risk populations. Several proven home visiting models, such as Early Head Start and Nurse-Family Partnership, focus on child development, healthcare access, and parenting support. Successful partnerships have integrated housing/homelessness services with child development interventions to meet families' long-term needs. States are encouraged to prioritize home visiting services for at-risk groups including low-income families, teenage parents, those with substance abuse issues, and families involved with child welfare.

The Youth Outcomes Task Force met to discuss improving outcomes for local youth in social acceptance and school attendance. Data showed 86% of local kids had a supportive adult, and 70-84% showed improved confidence and attitudes toward school. Nationally, kids with supportive adults were more likely to graduate college and volunteer. The task force identified social acceptance and attendance as key areas to address. Their next steps were to discuss obstacles to these areas and develop interventions and strategies to help kids overcome obstacles at their next meeting.

The Research Behind Strengthening Families Aug 2006
The document outlines the research process behind the Strengthening Families initiative, which aims to identify factors that reduce child abuse and neglect. It involves 5 steps: 1) searching for evidence on reducing abuse and neglect, 2) exploring connections between preventative factors and early childhood programs, 3) identifying programs that build these factors, 4) learning about policy changes to implement the model statewide, and 5) continuous learning with implementing states. It then discusses gathering input from experts, implementing the model through a 7 state pilot program, the hallmarks of statewide implementation, and the partnership between pilot states and the national initiative to share knowledge and lessons learned.

The document discusses how early childhood education programs can help prevent child abuse and neglect by promoting protective factors in families. It outlines several protective factors shown to prevent abuse, including parental resilience, social connections, knowledge of parenting/child development, and children's social-emotional competence. It also describes strategies programs use to strengthen these factors, such as parent education, social support, responding to crises, and observing for early signs of abuse or neglect. Overall, the document argues that early childhood programs are well-positioned to detect and address family issues to prevent child maltreatment.

Evaluating Parent Involvement and Family
Support in Early Intervention and
Preschool Programs
DONALD B. BAILEY, JR.
University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
Early intervention and preschool programs for children with disabilities are also accountable
for providing certain types of support for families. How should these efforts be evaluated? This
article describes three potential levels of accountability: (a) providing the legally required
services for familiesf (b) providing services that are considered recommended, and (c)
achieving certain outcomes as a result of working with families. Issues and considerations
related to each level of accountability are discussed and recommendations are made for
advancing policy and practice related to the evaluation of parent involvement and family
support efforts.
A combination of legislative initiatives, fam-
ily advocacy efforts, theory, and research has
led to wide acceptance of the assumption that
early intervention exists not just to support
young children with disabilities, but also to
support their families. Exactly what is meant
by parent involvement and family support
continues to be discussed, but at least three
themes have emerged around which there is
general consensus (Bailey et al., 1986; Bailey
et al., 1998; Brewer, McPherson, Magrab, &
Hutchins, 1989; Dunst, 1985; Shelton, Jepp-
son, & Johnson, 1987). First, parent involve-
ment and family support programs need to be
individualized, given the diversity of family
resources, priorities, concerns, and cultures.
Second, parents should be given every oppor-
tunity to participate as active partners in plan-
ning services for their child and for them-
selves, requiring professionals to engage in
practices that recognize, value, and support
this type of relationship. Third, since families
are the ultimate decision makers and long-
term care providers for their children, services
should be organized in ways that enable fam-
ilies to feel and be competent in advocating
for services and otherwise meeting the needs
of their young child with a disability.
As states and local programs strive to provide
a variety of family support initiatives, a funda-
mental question remains unanswered: How
should we evaluate whether parent involvement
and family support efforts have been successful?
In this paper I place this question in the context
of accountability and propose three potential
levels of accountability. Challenges associated
with each level are presented, and I conclude
with several potential recommendations for the
field.
PROGRAM EVALUATION AND
ACCOUNTABILITY
The principles and processes underlying pro-
gram evaluation have been well described over

The document discusses the elements of high-quality early childhood programs for infants and toddlers. Key elements include a child development curriculum, low child-to-staff ratios, trained and supported staff, partnerships with parents, and developmentally appropriate evaluation. High-quality programs implement a curriculum grounded in research that emphasizes child-initiated learning, observation of each child, and responsive adult-child interactions. Regular training is also important to improve caregiver skills and program quality over time.We Are Family-Parent Engagement
This document outlines strategies for engaging parents in mentoring and afterschool programs. It discusses defining parent engagement, challenges to engagement, and best practices supported by research. Effective approaches involve parents as partners through collaboration, engage and serve families by addressing their needs, and incorporate parents in meaningful ways while respecting their roles and strengths. The document provides discussion topics, scenarios, and resources for programs to improve engagement practices.
Parent voices, powerful influences
Parent engagement is a shared effort. It is rooted in the slow and patient work of relationship-building. What experiences and know-how do parents bring to the table? How are parents engaged in their children’s lives right now? How can agencies change its system and beliefs about parent ?
Triple P Metzler 12-3-2010
This document discusses adopting a public health approach to improving parenting practices in order to reduce behavior problems in children. It notes that while evidence-based parenting programs have been shown to be effective, few parents participate in them due to limited availability and engagement challenges. A public health approach aims to strengthen parenting skills across whole populations using a variety of minimally intensive formats to maximize reach, including self-administered materials, brief consultations, and online/TV programs. This broader reach can achieve greater impacts on children's outcomes than traditional intensive formats alone. The Triple P Positive Parenting Program is presented as a model that incorporates different levels of support.

Wouldn’t it be great if every child could participate in an early education program with evidence-based instruction, and receive appropriate levels of instructional interventions to achieve the best possible early academic and behavioral outcomes?
Multi-Tiered Systems of Support (MTSS)—a framework grounded in delivering evidence-based instruction of various intensity levels—can ensure that young children learn essential early academic and behavioral skills. In this edWebinar, discover how to successfully use a data-based decision-making process to match children’s needs with universal, strategic, or intensive instruction in a tiered model. Early education experts Judith J. Carta, Ph.D., and Robin Miller Young, Ed.D., NCSP, introduce MTSS as a system-wide, prevention-oriented framework for delivering efficient services and supports that meet the needs of all young children and their families.
In this recorded session, learn to:
- Articulate the MTSS framework’s core components that help improve outcomes for children and families and contrast these components with those that typically exist in early learning settings
- State how to use a data-based decision-making process to identify children who might need more intensive educational interventions and to monitor their progress during intervention
- Describe a multi-tiered intervention model for early learning programs
- Advocate for moving to an MTSS framework to drive change in early education across multiple system levels
This recorded edWebinar is ideal for all early childhood professionals. Learn how MTSS can help all young children achieve critical early learning outcomes and get ready for success in school.

Catalyst for Change: Cultivating Family Engagement
1) One Green Apple has developed an online platform called OPUS to facilitate effective family engagement in schools at a dramatically lower cost. OPUS provides tools for communication between teachers and parents, quantifies interactions, and measures the impact of engagement strategies.
2) Current research shows that effective family engagement improves student outcomes, but most districts do not allocate enough funding to support engagement strategies. Implementing comprehensive strategies could cost over $1,200 per student annually, which is unaffordable for most districts.
3) As a cloud-based platform, OPUS aims to reduce the cost of supporting family engagement to between $50-90 per student by providing core engagement functions and tools through accessible technology. This could enable
The Expansion of School-Community Partnerships
Across the country, states and communities are mobilizing to focus attention on young children and families, and many benefits could accrue from an integration of community–school efforts with early childhood initiatives. Ample evidence from research supports such integration.

JUVENILE DELINQUENCY POLICY
Juvenile Delinquency Policy
Student's Name
Institutional Affiliation
Often policies aimed at improving the situation of certain conditions in the society are formulated, passed and made ready for implementation. However, challenges face the implementation phase of the policies. There are a number of challenges that may hinder the implementation of a certain policy. These range from physical, social, economic, environmental and economic factors. this paper will seek to exploit the cost factors that affect the implementation of the juvenile delinquency policy. These fall under the economic factors of the above-named factors. These include a measure of the benefits that are to be realized upon switching to the new policy.
Training Costs.
Implementation of any policy involves capacity building of individuals who are going to disseminate the information to different part of the nation. This includes carrying out training in different places so as to ensure that the public is sensitized on the importance of this particular policy of juvenile delinquency for our case. This may include training in the institutions and also community-based training all of which will require funds for facilitation.
Incorporations Cost
The implementation of this policy will involve the provision of education to children in order to mold them to the desirable state of behavior. There will be a need of taking even the children who do not have access to education to institutions by ensuring that education is free of charge to all. To ensure these, the government of the day is obliged to sponsor these programs hence will need to source funds for the program.
Program Sustenance Cost
Once a program to support this policy is started, it important to ensure that the program is kept going on. There should be a consideration of the ways to sustain the program through the provision of necessities like learning materials among other education materials.
Administrative Costs.
These are the costs that are incurred to run the program in different places. This includes salaries for the officer responsible for overseeing the policy implementation in the different locations. This is also a great factor to put into consideration.
Ensuring The Participation of Different Groups in This Policy.
The involvement of the groups within the society is very important as it boosts this policy implementation. There are a number of ways that can be used to ensure the participation of these individual groups within society. The mass media being one of the groups can be involved through carrying out the campaigns via the media houses. The media houses can air any information that is supposed to pass across to the society. The media houses can also horst in.
Childrens Health Leadership Network webinar

Research Supporting Sf Protective Factors 02 19 09
This document summarizes research on protective factors that help prevent child maltreatment. It discusses that building protective factors in individuals, families, and communities is more effective than risk reduction alone. Protective factors studied include child, parent/family, and social/environmental factors. The Strengthening Families protective factors framework focuses on parental resilience, social connections, knowledge of parenting/child development, concrete support, and children's social-emotional competence. Research on adverse childhood experiences links exposure to abuse/neglect with negative health and behavioral outcomes. Studies also examine parental and childhood resilience as protective against stress.
