Promising Approaches

The Children's Bureau actively identifies promising approaches in child welfare during the Child and Family Services Reviews (CFSRs). Descriptions of the promising approaches are provided as a resource to States regarding areas of common concern identified during the CFSRs and the Program Improvement Plan process. The Children's Bureau does not make any representations pertaining to the effectiveness of the approaches and has not verified that they have been properly evaluated.
