Abstract: The Administration for Children and Families (ACF) within the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) seeks approval to contact child welfare agencies for the purpose of recruitment and gathering information to facilitate the sampling of children for the third cohort of children and families for the National Survey of Child and Adolescent Well-Being (NSCAW III). During this phase (Phase II) of the project, the study team proposes to collect information from children involved in the child welfare system (CWS) as well as their caregivers and caseworkers at baseline and 18-month follow-up. The overarching goal is to maintain the strengths and continuity of the prior cohorts of NSCAW while better positioning the study to address changes in the child welfare population and increasing the study’s utility through linkage to additional administrative datasets.
