dc.description.abstractThis program assessment tool is a resource for Community-Based Child Abuse Prevention (CBCAP) State Lead Agencies (SLAs) and their funded programs providing a tool for continuous quality improvement and evaluation using an internal or peer review process, or both. The following pages examine these processes by exploring the climate in which we practice and include – Setting the Stage: Defining the historical connection. Defining how current research impacts our field. Implementation Science: Illuminating what research tells us about effective practices for implementing evidence-based and evidence-informed programs and practices. Illuminating what CBCAP programs need to know to improve their own practices. Evaluation: Understanding how an internal process—program assessment—and an external process—peer review program assessment—fit into an overall continuous quality improvement (CQI) approach. Understanding what research tells us about how those processes help with program evaluation. Protective Factors: Demonstrating how program assessment processes can support and incorporate Protective Factors. Parent and Community Engagement: Highlighting parental and community roles in program assessment. This tool provides free and easy-to-use resources based on best practices developed over the intervening years to support programs in meeting CAPTA’s overarching goals. (Introduction Text)en_US
