Positive early experiences shapes the brain
ZERO TO THREE and Child Trends are pleased to share our new report, Changing the Course for Infants and Toddlers: A Survey of State Child Welfare Policies and Initiatives, which finds that that the “one-size-fits-all” child welfare approach adopted by most states does not work in meeting the unique developmental needs of many of the 200,000 infants and toddlers who come into contact with the child welfare system each year.
The report presents findings from a 2013 survey of state child welfare agencies about the policies and practices that guide their work in addressing the needs of infants and toddlers who have been maltreated. It sets the stage for understanding how states are currently supporting young children and calls on child welfare policymakers and administrators to establish stronger policies and practices that specifically address the unique needs of our youngest children.
