Example Normative Indicator Development: US Child and Family Service Review (CFSR) Maltreatment Recurrence
• As of June 2006 national standard for recurrence – Of all children who were victims of a substantiated or
indicated maltreatment allegation during the first 6 months of FY 2004, what percent were not victims of another substantiated or indicated maltreatment allegation within the 6-months following that maltreatment incident?
– National Standard Based on 45 States: 94.6% or higher
![Page 12: American Humane Association - Policy priorities and data needs regarding the protection of children](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062513/55643be8d8b42adb258b523e/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Policy and Trends (Example) :How is Data Translated Into Policy and Programs?
• Specific States not meeting standard must implement a 3 year Program Improvement Plan (PIP) approved by the US government– Plans address a range of programmatic and intervention strategies,
for example:• Multiple maltreatment and chronic neglect• Alternative response systems• Safety and risk assessment systems• Additional research and evaluation
• States not in compliance may be subject to penalties• After each three year cycle the US standards are reviewed and revised.

Summary – Child Maltreatment Monitoring and Evaluation Systems: Some Key Issues/Questions• Goals and Aims
• Scope Responsibilities Options for Data Collection– Institutional, overlapping multi-sector (health, social services,
judicial)
– Cultural/ Definitional
• Design of Surveillance Systems– Methods (self report, administrative sources, frequency)
– Ethics
• Appropriate Comparisons Across Countries/Jurisdictions
• Translation of Data Into Policy and Practice
