Book excerpt: Child abuse and neglect are social and public health problems that need to be addressed by strong policies and dynamic initiatives that show quantifiable results. The Healthy Families America® Initiative: Integrating Research, Theory and Practice is the most up-to-date examination of the home visitation program aimed at preventing child abuse and neglect. This contemporary and comprehensive summary of research and practice contains five empirical articles at the national, state, and multi-state levels, scholarly reviews, insights into Healthy Families America® (HFA) challenges and successes, and commentaries about the next steps for HFA. This detailed study of HFA is a roadmap for prevention efforts of the future, discussing in detail its past and present, the benefits and challenges of researcher/practitioner partnerships, and expert suggestions to improve practice. Healthy Families America is a program that works to help new families give their children a healthy, abuse- and neglect-free environment in which to grow. The Healthy Families America® Initiative: Integrating Research, Theory and Practice looks closely at the research to assess whether or not the program has actually attained its projected goals. This book comprehensively discusses the programs from both micro and macro perspectives, while offering practical strategies to strengthen HFA and guide the next phase of child abuse prevention. This resource also provides several tables to clearly present research data and is extensively referenced. The Healthy Families America® Initiative: Integrating Research, Theory and Practice covers the history of HFA; challenges and successes associated with its expansion as a national prevention initiative; the credentialing process; the evolution of the HFA Research to Practice Network (RPN); information on Every Child Succeeds and Healthy Families Arizona programs, and what makes them work; the theory, research, and practical constraints of developing, implementing, and evaluating a multi-site and statewide HFA program; the Web-based eECS system that optimizes quality assurance and collects data to document and identify clinical needs; an overview of the literature on home visiting outcomes; a current comprehensive summary of HFA outcomes; and suggestions on how to frame child abuse and neglect prevention to best impact citizens and public policy. The Healthy Families America® Initiative: Integrating Research, Theory and Practice is essential reading for professionals involved in child abuse and neglect prevention and treatment, community psychologists, professionals involved in prevention and health promotion, child advocates, HFA’s program evaluators and practitioners, sociologists, and policymakers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understand and evaluate family violence programs for your community! Twenty years ago, the major issue in creating interventions to prevent domestic violence was persuading the courts, the funding agencies, and society that domestic violence was a serious problem worthy of time, trouble, and money. Now that the importance of domestic violence has been established, we need safe and effective ways to evaluate those interventions to see which ones are working and how they can be improved. Program Evaluation and Family Violence Research brings together some of the best minds in the field discussing such vital evaluation issues as policy implications, alternative designs for evaluation studies, and ethical concerns. This comprehensive book approaches the vexed question of evaluation with compassion as well as scientific rigor. Clearly, traditional double-blind studies and control groups are difficult to conduct when family violence is the subject; it is ethically indefensible to sit back and watch abusers hurt their mates or children when interventions are available. Yet finding usable methods of program evaluation is also essential. Program Evaluation and Family Violence Research confronts these questions and discusses practical ways to evaluate a variety of domestic violence programs. Program Evaluation and Family Violence Research draws on years of experience to address the difficult questions raised, including: going beyond evaluating program effectiveness to analyze why and how interventions help change behavior creating new research designs to adapt to the unique concerns of the family violence field using meta-analysis for program evaluation research determining the interaction between research and program results identifying barriers between community activists and social scientists that may impede research Program Evaluation and Family Violence Research offers fresh and creative ways to do program evaluations, guarantee subjects’physical and emotional safety, and make good science humane.

This book was released on 2010 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report to Congress provides critical information about the Comprehensive Community Mental Health Services for Children and their Families Program (CMHI), including the characteristics of children, youth, and families as they enter the CMHI; the outcomes attained for children and youth, and their caregivers and families after entry into the CMHI; their CMHI service use and service experience; how well communities have implemented system of care principles, particularly interagency collaboration; the sustainability of systems of care; and caregiver and youth satisfaction with services. Data from the national evaluation demonstrate that funded systems of care: (1) Reach and provide services to many children and youth typically underserved by the mental health system; (2) Improve outcomes for children and youth; (3) Enhance family outcomes; (4) Expand the availability of effective supports and services; (5) Implement and maintain fidelity to the principles of family-driven, youth-guided, individualized services; (6) Save money by reducing the amount spent on residential treatment and juvenile justice services; and (7) Incorporate processes and resources that have a positive impact on sustainability. The national evaluation and this report to Congress have addressed the authorizing legislation's mandate to assess the effectiveness of the systems of care with regard to outcomes for children, youth, and families served by the CMHI. The report examined the use of hospitalization and other institutional settings, described the role and importance of interagency collaboration, and summarized parental assessments of the effectiveness of systems of care. Further, this report provided a description of how communities are carrying out the goal of the cooperative agreements by providing the types of services outlined in the legislation using an individualized, culturally and linguistically competent, and collaborative approach. Appended are: (1) Glossary of Terms; (2) SAMHSA's 8 Strategic Initiatives; (3) System of Care Communities of the Comprehensive Community Mental Health Services for Children and Their Families Program, 1993-2009; (4) Performance Measurement; (5) Description of Study Components; (6) Measures; (7) Data Analysis Techniques Used in This Report; and (8) Descriptive and Outcome Data Tables. (Contains 14 figures, 14 tables, and 27 endnotes.).
