The Children’s Bureau recently released A Framework to Design, Test, Spread, and Sustain Effective Practice in Child Welfare, a publication for professionals and funders who implement and evaluate child welfare interventions. To complement this document, the Children's Bureau produced a series of five animated videos that explain the major components of the framework and illustrate how they can be applied to build evidence and spread effective child welfare practice. Each brief video builds upon the next, and together they demonstrate how administrators, evaluators, and funders can partner to systematically use evaluation, apply findings, and make decisions that will increase the chances that the programs, policies, and practices will improve outcomes for children and families.
