Abstract
This issue addresses the question of how to incorporate trauma-informed organizational and practice strategies into child welfare practice.
Articles include research on complex trauma, evidence-based and promising practices that use a trauma-informed perspective, and innovative examples of integrating a trauma-informed perspective into practice and policy.
Description
Child Welfare 360° (CW360°) is an annual publication that provides communities, child welfare professionals, and other human service professionals, comprehensive information on the latest research, policies and practices in a key area affecting child well-being today. The publication uses a multidisciplinary approach for its robust examination of an important issue in child welfare practice and invites articles from key stakeholders, including families, caregivers, service providers, a broad array of child welfare professionals (including educators, legal professionals, medical professionals and others), and researchers. Social issues are not one dimensional and cannot be addressed from a single vantage point. We hope that reading CW360° enhances the delivery of child welfare services across the country while working towards safety, permanency and well-being for all children and families being served.
