SUMMARY:Child Welfare’s 21st-Century Research Agenda: An Anti-Racist Approach to Child Neglect Investigations
DESCRIPTION:Register				\n							\n		This webinar will provide an historical and contemporary overview of child neglect and its link to structural racism in child welfare. Then\, the presenter will engage the audience in variations of child neglect definitions and the nuanced interpretations in child neglect investigations. The presentation will conclude with strategies to address and combat racial bias in child neglect reporting and in the substantiation of these investigations. \nThe 21st-century research agenda for child welfare calls for addressing research gaps in the quality of child protective services (CPS) investigations. Specifically\, we need to understand more about how child welfare is responding to allegations of neglect and how improvements can be made. \n  \nAbout the Webinar Series\nThis webinar is one session in Social Current’s five-part learning series on the 21st-century research agenda for child welfare. \n\nCutting through the Chaos by Reframing Childhood Adversity\nOct. 11 from Noon-1 p.m. ET\nHow Monthly Cash Gifts Are Fostering Infant Brain Development\nOct. 13 from 2-3 p.m. ET\nSupporting Safe and Effective Investigations through Training Labs\nNov. 29 from 3-4:30 p.m. ET\nBuilding Protective Factors through Family Resource Centers\nDec. 1 from 3-4:30 p.m. ET\nAn Anti-Racist Approach to Child Neglect Investigations\nDec. 6 from 3-4 p.m. ET\n\nThe Annie E.
