The prevalence and consequences of child maltreatment (CM) make it a public health concern that requires early and effective prevention. Public policies can be critical in shaping every level of the social ecology, including individuals, families, and communities, and have the potential to play a key role in the prevention of CM. To protect children and youth and build an evidence-base of effective prevention strategies, evaluation of public policies are needed, including those currently being implemented. Policies related to family income were identified through the Division of Violence Prevention's Public Health Leadership Initiative policy analysis as those in need of evaluation. This proposed data collection will inform a larger outcome evaluation that seeks to understand if county-administered policy strategies of the TANF program result in lower rates of CM and associated child welfare outcomes. This collection addresses 3 primary aims: 1) to understand how a state policy allowing counties to administer TANF programs with flexibility contributes to county-level adoption of integrated welfare and child welfare service models; 2) to develop and refine an Implementation Index, to quantify the degree of integration between welfare and child welfare services; and 3) to inform the larger outcome evaluation, to examine if TANF policies and program supports reduce rates of CM when they are delivered in an integrated welfare and child welfare service model.
