Child Welfare News
Persistent link for this collection
Child Welfare News was the newsletter of CASCW from 1992 to 2010. Its purpose was to inform the child welfare community on current practice, policy and evaluation efforts. It also included updates on the child welfare activities of the Center’s Title IV-E alumni and articles or announcements pertaining to Center-sponsored events. CASCW produced one edition in both the fall and spring semesters.
In 2013, CASCW began an email-based newsletter, CASCW’s eUpdate. If you would like to subscribe to the eUpdate, sign up at http://z.umn.edu/cwupdate.
