This book was released on 2003 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

This book was released on 2023-08-12 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

This book was released on 2020-01-18 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Healthy mental, emotional, and behavioral (MEB) development is a critical foundation for a productive adulthood. Much is known about strategies to support families and communities in strengthening the MEB development of children and youth, by promoting healthy development and also by preventing and mitigating disorder, so that young people reach adulthood ready to thrive and contribute to society. Over the last decade, a growing body of research has significantly strengthened understanding of healthy MEB development and the factors that influence it, as well as how it can be fostered. Yet, the United States has not taken full advantage of this growing knowledge base. Ten years later, the nation still is not effectively mitigating risks for poor MEB health outcomes; these risks remain prevalent, and available data show no significant reductions in their prevalence. Fostering Healthy Mental, Emotional, and Behavioral Development in Children and Youth: A National Agenda examines the gap between current research and achievable national goals for the next ten years. This report identifies the complexities of childhood influences and highlights the need for a tailored approach when implementing new policies and practices. This report provides a framework for a cohesive, multidisciplinary national approach to improving MEB health.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Kids Count report examines statewide trends in the well-being of Pennsylvania's children. The statistical portrait is based on trends in 17 indicators of child well being: (1) birth weight; (2) early prenatal care; (3) infant mortality; (4) substantiated cases of child abuse or neglect; (5) out-of-home placements; (6) delinquent children placed out-of-home; (7) Head Start enrollments; (8) regulated child care capacity; (9) public school dropouts; (10) child mortality; (11) child enrollment in Medicaid; (12) enrollment in Children's Health Insurance Program; (13) children receiving Temporary Assistance for Needy Families/Aid to Families with Dependent Children; (14) births to single mothers under age 20; (15) child poverty; (16) children in single-parent families; and (17) unemployment and income. The report is presented in six sections. Section 1 summarizes the findings. Section 2 provides statewide indicator information, including graphic multi-year profiles of the state as a whole; urban, rural, and mixed counties as groups; and Pennsylvania's racial and ethnic minority populations. Section 3 presents information organized by indicator. For each indicator, a two-page map and table show how each county fares on the indicator and how it compares to other counties. The table also compares each county with others in its population category. Section 4 provides profiles of each county, with graphs of multi-year trends, usually from 1983. There are also county-level racial/ethnic breakdowns and municipality breakouts. Section 5 charts performance, resources, and student statistics for all public school districts. Section 6, the report's appendix, defines indicators and lists data sources. Among the findings, the report indicates progress in the areas of regulated child care capacity, enrollment in Head Start, and substantiated reports of child abuse and neglect. The report also indicates negative progress in the areas of children living in poverty, child death rate, children in single parent homes, and children in foster care. (KB)
