Prevention

Goal

Provide children and families with the upfront supports and services they need to prevent them from entering the child welfare system, and/or limit their involvement with the system once they are known to it.

Strategies

Early Prevention: Ensure that families are provided with an array of upfront supports within their own communities to minimize their chances of entering the child welfare system and maximize their chances of living healthy and stable lives.

Continuum of Care: Create a structure that promotes good communication and coordination of services across entities assisting children and families once they become known to the child protection system.
