Child Welfare Programs: Grants to Prove Effectiveness of Prevention Services.
This law establishes a new competitive grant program to help state and local child welfare initiatives rigorously evaluate their prevention services. The goal is to ensure that services, such as family support and kinship navigator programs, meet high research standards set by federal guidelines. This change means more families will gain access to proven, effective services designed to prevent children from entering foster care.
Key points
