In honor of #childabusepreventionmonth, I am sharing a fact and a photo every day that highlights the importance of child welfare. Today's topic is the child welfare industry in the United States. Did you know that the United States is the only country that has not ratified the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, which impacts its child welfare policies? Check out the link in the post to learn more about child welfare facts in the US. Let's work together to prioritize the safety and well-being of children everywhere. #childwelfare #rightsforchildren #preventioniskey https://lnkd.in/gHjWQXCF

Government overreach in welfare administration has led to unintended consequences that undermine individual liberty and responsibility. In the Northern Territory of Australia, welfare policies designed to assist indigenous communities have resulted in paternalistic measures that restrict individual freedoms and imposed devastating results. The BasicsCard, a welfare debit card, has been criticized for treating recipients as incapable of managing their own finances and incentivizing crime, sex trafficking, and drug dealing. Welfare-to-work programs have been implemented with mixed results, often resulting in stringent conditions and penalties. Mental health and self-esteem are also negatively affected by welfare policies that foster dependency. The Northern Territory's law-and-order approach to welfare administration has included measures such as compulsory income management and punitive responses to non-compliance, but it fails to address the root causes of social issues. A more effective approach would involve empowering communities through education, private job training, and privately run support services, rather than relying on punitive measures. #Welfare #economics #welfaredependency #law #overreach #administration #interventionism #economicprosperity #economicfreedom

This new report from our research partner RTI International introduces the first Child Welfare Workforce study, which was carried out as part of the third cohort of the National Survey of Child and Adolescent Well-Being (NSCAW III). The NSCAW III Child Welfare Workforce Study sought to better understand four topic areas relevant to the child welfare system (CWS) context: workforce characteristics and competencies; recruitment, hiring, and onboarding; training and professional development; and organizational factors. The study’s timing allowed for the inclusion of research questions about the policy and practice impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. https://buff.ly/3XeH054 #Data #ChildWelfare #Workforce
