Abstract

This study examined the association between select demographic risk factors and family self-report of prior child protective services (CPS) involvement among immigrant families and whether CPS involvement influenced the level of engagement in home visiting services. Administrative data on 4896 immigrant families enrolled in the Parents as Teachers (PAT) home visiting program were analyzed using logistic regression and propensity score weighted multinomial regression models. Substance use (OR = 4.74, p < .001), intimate partner violence (OR = 5.31, p < .001), single (OR = 3.25, p < .001) and teen parenthood (OR = 2.16, p < 01) were significantly associated with immigrant CPS involvement. Families with CPS involvement were more likely to engage in home visiting services for 90 days-1 year compared to over 1 year (RRR: 3.64, p < .01). History of CPS involvement decreased the probability of early dropout (less than 90 days) from home visitation by 27 percentage points. Implications for home visitation practice and research are discussed.

儿童福利参与对接受家访服务移民家庭父母参与的影响。

本研究旨在探讨人口统计学风险因素与移民家庭参与儿童保护服务（CPS）的家庭自我报告之间的关系，以及CPS参与是否影响家庭参与家访服务的水平。采用logistic回归和倾向得分加权多项式回归模型对4896个参加家长当教师（PAT）家访计划的移民家庭的行政数据进行分析。物质使用（OR = 4.74, p < .001）、亲密伴侣暴力（OR = 5.31, p < .001）、单身（OR = 3.25, p < .001）和青少年父母（OR = 2.16, p < 0.01）与移民CPS参与显著相关。与超过1年的家庭相比，参与CPS的家庭更有可能参与90天-1年的家访服务（rr: 3.64, p < 0.01）。参与CPS的历史使家访早期辍学（少于90天）的概率降低了27个百分点。讨论了家访实践和研究的意义。
