These standards developed by the Child Welfare League of America outline a system of best practices for child protective services. The guidelines are to be used as goals for the continuous improvement of child protective service systems. They address services to be provided, social work practice, the role of the community, cooperation with civil and criminal justice systems, program organization and administration, and child placement. Child abuse reporting, screening, assessment, case planning, roles and responsibilities of professionals and the community, family support services, and prevention are discussed. A glossary is also included. Numerous references.
