New York State Policy on Child Welfare and Two-
Generation Approaches
By Nora Smithhisler, Cornell University
Who develops New York’s child welfare
policy?
New York State Office of Children and Family Services
(OCFS) has multiple state agencies committed to various
formats of child welfare, including the Division of Child
Care Services (DCCS), Division of Child Welfare and
Community Services (DCWCS), and Division of Juvenile
Justice and Opportunities for Youth (DJJOY).
What two-generation programs does New
York offer?
New York is increasing its two-generational approach to
child and adult poverty through programs like the Child
Care Subsidy Program, the NYS Close to Home initiative,
Healthy Families NY, Advantage and Empire After
School Programs, and state-sponsored pre-schools,
among others. These programs are overseen by the
Office of Child and Family Services, and rely on state
funds to provide a large portion of their services,
supplemented by federal grants and philanthropic
organizations.
Do these programs work?
The Division of Child Welfare and Community Services
runs annual program evaluations, reporting back to the
OCFS and the state assembly, to ensure continued
funding. Healthy Families New York is a program that
offers home visiting services, providing parents with
prenatal education and support in bonding with and
monitoring their young children for developmental
milestones [2]. It has been classified by the federal
government as an evidence-based program, having
been evaluated for over fifteen years in research
control trials and improved continuously through the
monitoring of performance measures [3].
Measurements of success include 50% reduction in
subsequent confirmed child protective (CPS) reports in
home-visited families, a 50% reduction in children
repeating first grade, and an increase in parents utilizing
strategies to engage with their children and discipline
them non-violently. This support of both parents and
children together has resulted in triple the returns on
investment by the child’s seventh birthday,
demonstrating that the money spent on helping parents
and children develop knowledge and stability in their
lives saves the state money [4].

This document analyzes how the federal Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act (CAPTA) affects the formation of child abuse intervention programs in Pennsylvania and Illinois. It discusses CAPTA requirements and how the states implement the law. The author compares the structure of child welfare organizations, citizen review panels, program improvement plans, and budgets in both states. While the states fulfill basic CAPTA obligations, Pennsylvania takes a more complex, subdivided approach and Illinois uses a centralized agency. The author proposes reforms to child welfare laws, including a multifaceted lead agency and collaborative, goal-oriented improvements.
CSF 2020 Parents Survey 2020 Press Release
The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted students' higher education and career plans according to a survey of nearly 1,000 parents. Specifically:
- One-third of students changed their career plans and 30% altered what type of higher education institution they planned to attend.
- The vast majority (87%) of students will take either fully online or a hybrid of online and in-person courses. However, over half of parents are unwilling to pay full tuition for remote classes.
- Many families have also experienced financial hardship during the pandemic, with over half reporting a lost job or reduced work hours and 8% losing all sources of income.
- Despite these challenges, two-thirds of parents have maintained sound higher education

Healthcare Program/Policy Evaluation Analy
Promoting Safe and Stable Families
The role of nurses throughout healthcare program and policy evaluation is vital to our role as change agents within our communities. As nurses we participate in the evaluation process every time we go to work, assess our patients, and then partake in delivery of care. If we want to our voices to be heard we must be willing to take our evaluation skills to the next level. We must ask ourselves tough questions about whether the healthcare programs we are providing are meeting the needs of patients, their families, and communities. We must evaluate the healthcare program goals and outcomes to help determine whether it remains fiscally responsible and continues to meet a need in the population it aims to serve. Ultimately, we cannot blindly accept that the presence of a program validates its success. We must be willing and able to take personal action to ensure patients receive the highest quality of healthcare each and every day. The purpose of this paper is to present an evaluation of the Promoting Safe and Stable Families (PSSF) program with respect to it’s background, goals, outcomes, success, costs and related nursing advocacy opportunities.
Healthcare Program/Policy Evaluation
Promoting Safe and Stable Families (PSSF)
Description
The Promoting Safe and Stable Families (PSSF) program, which is more formally known as Title IV-B subpart 2 of the Social Security Act, aims to avoid unnecessary separations between caregivers and their children, protect permanency for children by taking the necessary steps to reunite them with their parents, when possible, or another permanent living situation, and to improve the quality of care and programming services being offered to children and their families to achieve maximum chance for stable families (U.S. Department of Health & Human Services: Children’s Bureau, 2012).
The PSSF program has recently had two additional programs added, the Personal Responsibility Education Program (PREP) and abstinence education. The goal of the PREP program is to provide state funding aimed at teen pregnancy prevention, addressing prevalence of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) in the adolescent population, as well as teaching teens skills to prepare them for adulthood (ie financial responsibility and organization skills). The abstinence education portion provides grants to individual states to promote education to adolescents regarding delaying sexual activity in an effort to further reduce teen pregnancy rates, but also to promote development of healthy relationships and establishment of healthy boundaries in at-risk populations such as homeless teens or those in foster care (United States Department of Health & Human Services, 2018).

Head Start Program
The Head Start program began in 1965 as part of the War on Poverty to provide preschool children from low-income families with education, health, nutrition and parent involvement services. It serves children ages 3-5 and their families who live below the federal poverty line. Head Start programs provide educational, health, nutrition and social services to enrolled children and families to promote school readiness and engage parents in their children's learning. The program is funded by federal appropriations and administered locally by non-profits and school systems, with over $6.8 billion spent in 2007. Nutrition professionals play roles in menu planning, nutrition education and ensuring children's nutritional needs are met.

Child Care in America:
Every week in the United States, child care providers care for nearly 11
million children younger than age 5 whose parents are working. On
average, these children spend 36 hours a week in child care, and one
quarter (nearly 3 million) are in multiple child care arrangements due to
the traditional and nontraditional working hours of their parents.1
Research has continually illustrated the importance of quality early
experiences in achieving good health, especially within the most
vulnerable populations. Families, child care providers and state and
federal policymakers share responsibility for the safety and wellbeing
of children while they are in child care settings. Basic state
requirements and oversight help lay the foundation necessary to
protect children and promote their healthy development while in child
care.
The Child Care and Development Block Grant (CCDBG) program
serves approximately 1.45 million children annually in communities
across the country. CCDBG is the primary federal grant program that
provides child care assistance for families and funds child care quality
initiatives. Funds are administered to states in formula block grants,
and states use the grants to subsidize child care for low-income
working families.
In November 2014, President Barack Obama signed S.1086, the Child
Care and Development Block Grant Act of 2014 into law. The new law
includes several measures focused on quality, including requiring
states to:
Promote quality child care by increasing activities to improve
the care, enhancing states’ ability to train providers and develop
safer and more effective child care services.
Strengthen health and safety requirements in child care
programs and providers.
Improve access to child care by expanding eligibility for
participating families and helping families connect with quality
programs that meet their needs by enhancing consumer
education, providing greater options for quality child care and
working to ensure continuity of care, essential for both the well-
being and stability of a child.2
With the new federal child care measures set to take effect, states are
rapidly building, evaluating, and changing their early care and
education quality focused systems (Quality Rating and Improvement
System (QRIS), professional development, licensing and standards).
Implementation of the new regulations must align with these efforts for
sustainability and maximum impact.
Over the past several years, Child Care Aware® of America has
surveyed and conducted focus groups with parents of young children,
grandparents, national child advocacy organizations, and state and
local Child Care Resource and Referral (CCR&R) agencies. Those
conversations underscored that child care is an essential building block

TwoGenerationApril2015
This document summarizes recommendations from a policy report on breaking the cycle of poverty in young families through two-generation strategies. The two-generation approach aims to meet the needs of both parents and children simultaneously by providing services like education, workforce training, childcare and development. The report calls for policy changes at the federal, state and local levels as well as for organizations. Recommended federal policies include redefining poverty levels, increasing minimum wage and funding for existing programs. State/local policies should support blended funding and workforce development. Organizations need help with grants, data collection and collaboration. The overall goal is to provide comprehensive support for young parents and children's economic mobility.

2015 NYS Coalition CMHS Policy Papers
The document outlines budget and policy priorities for New York State's Coalition for Children's Mental Health Services. It identifies three main priorities for the 2015-16 fiscal year: 1) Addressing inadequate behavioral health rates for non-Medicaid youth under Child Health Plus; 2) Supporting a $500 million Non-Profit Infrastructure Fund and adding options for residential treatment facility mortgage buyouts; 3) Investing in prevention services over three years that can reduce growth of populations needing specialized children's behavioral health services. It also discusses transitional funding needs for services for non-Medicaid eligible youth and transforming residential treatment facilities.
Ct Naeyc Systems And#B31 Cc4
The document discusses the opportunities and challenges facing early childhood education systems given recent economic conditions and policy changes. It argues that states must transform their service, information, and management systems to take advantage of new federal funding opportunities while addressing budget cuts. An integrated early childhood data system is needed to evaluate programs, improve outcomes for at-risk children, and inform policy decisions.

SNL Brief Final
Three million newborns die each year from preventable causes like preterm birth, infections, and complications during childbirth. The Saving Newborn Lives program works with governments and partners in multiple countries to increase access to and quality of newborn healthcare, in order to reduce newborn mortality at scale. Evidence shows that their approach of strengthening health systems and promoting improved home practices has helped lower newborn death rates in focus countries.
Healthcare Operations Change Initiative Proposal
This document discusses expanding access to mental health care through school-based health centers (SBHCs). It notes that while SBHCs have evolved since the 1900s to address various health needs, more is still needed to fill gaps in access to mental health care for children and teens. Key changes proposed include increasing and stabilizing funding for SBHCs from federal and state governments. This would allow for improved outreach, quality measures, and accountability. The impacts of these changes would be decreased health risks and costs to society by expanding access to mental health services for underserved youth populations.

CSI that Works ECD Research Report final Oct 2014
This document provides an overview of early childhood development (ECD) in South Africa, including key findings from research on ECD interventions funded by corporate social investment. It finds that while access to ECD services and children's health have improved, over 50% of children still live in poverty with inadequate access to necessities. The document examines several case studies of ECD programs and identifies lessons learned, such as supporting home-based models, training ECD practitioners, and promoting partnerships. It recommends that corporate social investment focus on holistic ECD programs, outreach to complement center-based services, infrastructure development, and maternal and child nutrition.
The Federal Government Supporting Childrn's Success
The federal government supports early childhood education programs through several agencies and laws. Major programs include Head Start, administered by the Department of Health and Human Services since 1965 to provide preschool to low-income children. The No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 holds schools accountable and focuses on literacy. It established six fundamental areas including accountability, technology, and parental involvement. The document outlines the history and purposes of key federal programs and laws supporting early childhood learning and families.

Early Trends in Opioid Misuse During the Covid-19 Pandemic
The document discusses the potential impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on opioid misuse and treatment in the United States. It notes that while opioid prescriptions and treatment were decreasing before the pandemic, COVID-19 could reverse this progress due to pandemic-related stress, social isolation, and strain on the healthcare system. Early data from Kentucky shows increases in opioid overdoses after the state declared an emergency. In response, policies have aimed to increase access to telehealth and take-home medication to maintain treatment during the pandemic. Continued policy adjustments will be needed to address impacts on the opioid epidemic.

The Opioid Epidemic: Preventing a Fatal Opioid Overdose
Narcan, also known as Naloxone, is a prescription medication that can reverse an opioid overdose by blocking opioids in the brain for 30-90 minutes. There are two forms of Narcan, a nasal spray and injectable. Non-medical individuals can effectively administer Narcan to someone experiencing an overdose. If administered to someone who is not overdosing, Narcan has no effect. At over 2,000 pharmacies in New York, a person does not need a prescription to obtain Narcan.

It is not always easy to tell when people around us are struggling with drug use. If you are concerned about someone in your life, you can look out for the following warning signs and reach out to them.
The Opioid Epidemic: An Overview
The opioid epidemic has become a public health crisis in recent years. Factors that increase the risk of opioid misuse include experiencing physical or social hardships, mental health issues, substance use, and criminal activity. Opioids are both legal and illegal drugs, including prescription medications like oxycodone and hydrocodone as well as heroin. Addiction is driven by biological changes in the body and brain that occur quickly after regular opioid use. Prevention through education is key to addressing this epidemic and reducing stigma around addiction.

Trends in Opioid Misuse and Implications for Child Welfare in New York StateFrancesca Vescia (she/her)
This research brief examines trends in opioid misuse and child welfare outcomes in New York State between 2006 and 2016. It finds that increases in opioid misuse and rates of child maltreatment were geographically concentrated, with many counties in Central NY and the Southern Tier experiencing high increases in both measures. Specifically, 17 counties saw above-median increases in both opioid emergency department admissions and reported child maltreatment rates, indicating particular vulnerability in these regions. In contrast, most counties downstate like in the Hudson Valley saw below-median increases in both measures.Parenting Experiences and Parenting Education in Family Treatment Court

A Guide to AI for Smarter Nonprofits - Dr. Cori Faklaris, UNC Charlotte
Working with data is a challenge for many organizations. Nonprofits in particular may need to collect and analyze sensitive, incomplete, and/or biased historical data about people. In this talk, Dr. Cori Faklaris of UNC Charlotte provides an overview of current AI capabilities and weaknesses to consider when integrating current AI technologies into the data workflow. The talk is organized around three takeaways: (1) For better or sometimes worse, AI provides you with “infinite interns.” (2) Give people permission & guardrails to learn what works with these “interns” and what doesn’t. (3) Create a roadmap for adding in more AI to assist nonprofit work, along with strategies for bias mitigation.

Border towns and spaces of (in)visibility.pdf
This report explores the significance of border towns and spaces for strengthening responses to young people on the move. In particular it explores the linkages of young people to local service centres with the aim of further developing service, protection, and support strategies for migrant children in border areas across the region. The report is based on a small-scale fieldwork study in the border towns of Chipata and Katete in Zambia conducted in July 2023. Border towns and spaces provide a rich source of information about issues related to the informal or irregular movement of young people across borders, including smuggling and trafficking. They can help build a picture of the nature and scope of the type of movement young migrants undertake and also the forms of protection available to them. Border towns and spaces also provide a lens through which we can better understand the vulnerabilities of young people on the move and, critically, the strategies they use to navigate challenges and access support.
The findings in this report highlight some of the key factors shaping the experiences and vulnerabilities of young people on the move – particularly their proximity to border spaces and how this affects the risks that they face. The report describes strategies that young people on the move employ to remain below the radar of visibility to state and non-state actors due to fear of arrest, detention, and deportation while also trying to keep themselves safe and access support in border towns. These strategies of (in)visibility provide a way to protect themselves yet at the same time also heighten some of the risks young people face as their vulnerabilities are not always recognised by those who could offer support.
In this report we show that the realities and challenges of life and migration in this region and in Zambia need to be better understood for support to be strengthened and tuned to meet the specific needs of young people on the move. This includes understanding the role of state and non-state stakeholders, the impact of laws and policies and, critically, the experiences of the young people themselves. We provide recommendations for immediate action, recommendations for programming to support young people on the move in the two towns that would reduce risk for young people in this area, and recommendations for longer term policy advocacy.

The Combined IUU Fishing Vessel List merges all these sources into one list that provides a single reference point to identify whether a vessel is currently IUU listed. Vessels that have been IUU listed in the past and subsequently delisted (for example because of a change in ownership, or because the vessel is no longer in service) are also retained on the site, so that the site contains a full historic record of IUU listed fishing vessels.
Unlike the IUU lists published on individual RFMO websites, which may update vessel details infrequently or not at all, the Combined IUU Fishing Vessel List is kept up to date with the best available information regarding changes to vessel identity, flag state, ownership, location, and operations.

New York State Policy on Child Welfare and Two-Generation Approaches
- 1. POLICY BRIEF SERIES Spring 2018 New York State Policy on Child Welfare and Two- Generation Approaches By Nora Smithhisler, Cornell University Who develops New York’s child welfare policy? New York State Office of Children and Family Services (OCFS) has multiple state agencies committed to various formats of child welfare, including the Division of Child Care Services (DCCS), Division of Child Welfare and Community Services (DCWCS), and Division of Juvenile Justice and Opportunities for Youth (DJJOY). What two-generation programs does New York offer? New York is increasing its two-generational approach to child and adult poverty through programs like the Child Care Subsidy Program, the NYS Close to Home initiative, Healthy Families NY, Advantage and Empire After School Programs, and state-sponsored pre-schools, among others. These programs are overseen by the Office of Child and Family Services, and rely on state funds to provide a large portion of their services, supplemented by federal grants and philanthropic organizations. Do these programs work? The Division of Child Welfare and Community Services runs annual program evaluations, reporting back to the OCFS and the state assembly, to ensure continued funding. Healthy Families New York is a program that offers home visiting services, providing parents with prenatal education and support in bonding with and monitoring their young children for developmental milestones [2]. It has been classified by the federal government as an evidence-based program, having been evaluated for over fifteen years in research control trials and improved continuously through the monitoring of performance measures [3]. Measurements of success include 50% reduction in subsequent confirmed child protective (CPS) reports in home-visited families, a 50% reduction in children repeating first grade, and an increase in parents utilizing strategies to engage with their children and discipline them non-violently. This support of both parents and children together has resulted in triple the returns on investment by the child’s seventh birthday, demonstrating that the money spent on helping parents and children develop knowledge and stability in their lives saves the state money [4].
