Abstract
Matthew Stagner and Jiffy Lansing chart developments in the field of child maltreatment and
propose a new framework for preventing child abuse and neglect. They begin by describing
the concept of investment-prevention as it has been applied recently in fields such as health
care and welfare. They then explain how the new framework applies to maltreatment prevention, noting in particular how it differs from the traditional child protective services response to
maltreatment.
