Primary Prevention of Child Physical Abuse and Neglect: Gaps and Promising Directions

Reviews on primary prevention have identified effective strategies to prevent child maltreatment but have ignored potentially promising interventions that have not yet been evaluated as well as gaps in the development of programs. The goal of this review was to identify these gaps and recommend future directions for developing interventions from a public health perspective. To this end, a systematic review of the literature for 1980-2004 utilizing existing databases and found 188 primary prevention interventions that addressed a broad range of risk factors was conducted. However, few had been rigorously evaluated, and only a handful demonstrated impact on child maltreatment or its risk factors. From a public health perspective, interventions that target prevalent and neglected risk factors such as poverty, partner violence, teenage pregnancy, and social norms tolerating violence toward children need to be developed and evaluated. In addition, more attention should be given to low cost interventions delivered to the public, by society, or that require minimal effort from recipients.

“…Consequently, the family members feel powerless and believe that they cannot be part of the child's life or the actions taken on his or her behalf (Masson & Harrison, 1994). Therefore, responsibilities must gradually be transferred back to parents (Martone et al, 1989;Striefel et al, 1998). In our study, caseworkers stressed the importance of using means that are adapted to the parents' abilities, and respecting the pace at which they are able to make changes.…”

“…Since each family is different, caseworkers need many different strategies for involving parents (Gerris, Van As, Wels, & Janssens, 1998;Goyette et al, 1994;McFadden & Downs, 1995;Schatz & Bane, 1991;Webster-Stratton, 1998). The literature on the subject describes a variety of ways in which practitioners facilitate parent involvement (Association des centres jeunesse, 1996; Dickerson, 1998;Gerris et al, 1998;Goyette et al, 1994;Jenson & Whittaker, 1987;Martone et al, 1989;Schatz & Bane, 1991;Striefel, Robinson, & Truhn, 1998;Webster-Stratton, 1998). …”

“…In addition, the caseworker must show sensitivity and empathy towards the family situation (Association des centres jeunesse, 1996; Martone et al, 1989;Schatz & Bane, 1991). He or she must accept the family unconditionally, being respectful and non-judgmental (Schatz & Bane, 1991;Striefel et al, 1998). Finally, the caseworker must convey to parents that he or she has confidence in their ability to improve the situation, and must wait patiently for changes to take place (Schatz & Bane, 1991;Striefel et al, 1998;Webster-Stratton, 1998).…”

Modern view of child protection services implies that to help young people, simply intervening on their behalf is not sufficient. It suggests that involving parents in the assistance process is essential in order to ensure that they are most likely to play their role as parents to their children in the fullest possible way. Although several articles have dealt with the issue of parent involvement, very few have attempted to document the practices used by practitioners to encourage such involvement. This article presents the findings of a study on child protection practices for involving parents in a child protection context. It is exploratory in nature, and uses a qualitative methodology. The study population is made up of 38 child protection service workers. An analysis of the practitioners' discourse reveals that the behaviour and attitudes used by them to encourage parent involvement are very diverse. There also appear to be key moments in securing their involvement, that is, making contact, setting objectives and means of action, and applying the case plan. In addition to corroborating earlier studies on the issue of parent involvement, our findings indicate that the majority of the caseworkers interviewed practice an approach that aims to empower clients.
