Long Term Trends in the Well-being of Children and Youth
Author: Roger P. Weissberg
Publisher: CWLA Press (Child Welfare League of America)
ISBN:
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 388
Book Description
A large body of research provides a detailed picture of many aspects of the lives of children and youth today. If we are to develop and strengthen our knowledge and target resources effectively, however we need a better understanding of how child and youth well-being has changed over the last century. The authors have adopted an ambitious long-term perspective and looked back over much of the last century to examine changes in the wide variety of domains that together add up to the complex picture of our children's overall well-being -- including educational attainment, drug use, sexual behavior, health, family composition and supports, economic security, child care, government policies and programs, media, and communities. The authors consider the implications of the data and discuss the adequacy of current policies and programs for young people in light of the documented trends.

Strengthening Child Safety and Well-Being Through Integrated Data Solutions
Author: Christian M. Connell
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3031366085
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 153
Book Description
This book explores the use of integrated administrative data to understand and address the significant public health problem of child maltreatment. It examines the use of linked, or integrated, administrative data to increase understanding of population-level needs – and to inform decision-making efforts – within the child welfare system and across other public systems. The book details the technological innovations that have allowed for the accumulation and centralization of large datasets critical to identifying risks of child maltreatment and its negative consequences and to target community and system responses more accurately to address these challenges. Leading experts from the fields of child maltreatment, child welfare, and human services research share their insights and experiences at the forefront of this critical research area and how it is shaping understanding of identification, intervention, and policy affecting children and families. Key areas of coverage include: Ways in which these data can be leveraged to promote more effective efforts to detect, prevent, and respond to child maltreatment. Emerging and innovative approaches in the acquisition and use of administrative data to inform the societal and governmental response to child maltreatment. The use of multisystem data and integrated data systems to conduct predictive analytics, risk monitoring, or policy- and program-focused research and evaluation to inform child welfare system solutions. Strengthening Child Safety and Well-Being Through Integrated Data Solutions is a must-have volume for researchers, professors, and graduate students as well as clinicians, practitioners, policy makers, and related professionals across such disciplines as child and school psychology, social psychology, developmental psychology, public health, clinical social work, educational and public policy, and all related disciplines.
