| Summary |
| This study will examine the family preservation and family support implementation process across States and communities and among different stakeholders over time—how the States and communities implement the legislation, the ways in which implementation alters the current service delivery system, and the effects of these changes on service delivery. An annual review of State applications and plans across all 50 States, in-depth case studies in 10 States and 20 communities, a survey of frontline workers, and a study of client case records will be conducted. |
