‘We were persistently othering them out’
Background: The transition to adulthood may involve experiences of risk and harm – including, for some young people, abuse, violence or exploitation in peer and community contexts. In the UK, such extra-familial risks and harms have prompted safeguarding responses in policy and practice. However, safeguarding conceptualisations are significantly different for young people under 18 than for those over 18, leading to service and system gaps in tran…

Parents advocates provide a range of diverse supports not adequately captured in current support definitions. • Fourteen unique support domains are identified that highlight the important contribution of parent advocates and their lived experience. • The breadth and depth of parent advocate support needs to be more fully recognized in practice and research, including its contribution to positive outcome achievement. Parent peer advocacy is an inc…
We will always think, ‘is this the right decision?’ Norwegian child welfare workers navigating the uncertain project of reunification
‘I was detecting a kind of, a from the heart kind of dialogue’

Limited resources for child protection create challenging decision situations for child protective services (CPS) workers at the point of intake. A body of research has examined the factors associated with worker decisions and processes using a variety of methodological approaches to gain knowledge on decision‐making. However, few attempts have been made to systematically review this literature. As part of a larger project on decision‐making at i…
Using Administrative Data to Monitor Racial/Ethnic Disparities and Disproportionality Within Child Welfare Agencies
Child welfare administrative data are increasingly used to identify racial/ethnic disproportionality and disparities at various levels of aggregation. However, child welfare agencies typically face challenges in harnessing administrative data to examine racial/ethnic disproportionality and disparities at meaningful levels of analysis due to limited resources and/or tools for reporting. This article describes the process through which a multi-stat…
Better practices in parent engagement
This paper undertakes an international comparison of parent engagement in the USA and England. Research from both countries is reviewed to establish the extent to which parent engagement is achieving the benefit of an improved fit between need and services and what, if any, differences exist between the experiences of parents in the USA and England. Despite some unique differences, research from both countries identifies similar experiences among…
The Capabilities Approach
This article reviews the capabilities approach to understand the life circumstances that affect the employability of “hard-to-employ” welfare (Temporary Assistance to Needy Families [TANF]) recipients. It reports research findings related to TANF recipients’ employment and presents key elements of the capabilities approach. It compares and contrasts functionings that impede and enhance TANF recipients’ employment. It finds that employability is i…
