Institutional Analysis
We partner with local public systems to use an intentional methodology (Institutional Analysis or IA) to identify how institutions of child welfare or juvenile justice are not working as effectively as they can for families, with a particular focus on families of color and LGBTQ youth and families. This analysis reveals features of structural racism and biases—inequitable policies, practices, resource distribution, etc.—and suggests practical strategies communities and institutions can employ to address identified inequities
Infant-Toddler Court Program
The Infant-Toddler Court Program supports local jurisdictions and states to better meet the needs of young children and their families who are involved with the child welfare system through the implementation and sustainability of research-based infant-toddler court teams.
Strengthening Families
Strengthening Families is a research-informed approach to increase family strengths, enhance child development, and reduce the likelihood of child abuse and neglect. It is based on engaging families, programs, and communities in building five key protective factors.
Youth Thrive
Youth Thrive is changing the way the nation’s child welfare, foster care, and juvenile justice systems help youth overcome challenging circumstances, successfully transition out of these systems, and go on to live productive lives.
