Child Maltreatment Prevention Strategies

Recently released, the Fall 2009 issue of The Future of Children, a collaboration between The Brookings Institution and Princeton University’s Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs, focuses on policies and practices for the prevention of child maltreatment. Its articles address prevention measures such as:

· Using risk factors to create accurate risk assessments;
· Investing in proven community-wide interventions;
· Integrating home-visiting programs into prevention efforts;
· Rethinking the approach to families with drug or alcohol abuse; and
· Expanding programs to prevent sexual abuse.
