We identified 380 simple and 40 serial mediation paths across four domains: child characteristics, maternal characteristics, parent-child relationship factors, and household characteristics. Maternal characteristics showed the largest pooled effects (proportion median [PM]: 31.2%; ratio median [RM]: 0.21), particularly maternal mental health (PM: 36.0%), maternal attachment style (PM: 27.2%), and maternal social support (PM: 27.2%).

Three survey measures assessed children's understanding of abuse types, readiness to seek help, and perceptions of school culture at baseline, immediately post-intervention, and six months later. Statistical analyses included paired and independent t-tests, MANCOVAs, and Chi-square tests. Children showed significant immediate improvements in identifying neglect, sexual, emotional, and physical abuse, with knowledge largely retained at six months. Older pupils demonstrated the strongest sustained gains, particularly in recognising trusted adults and understanding sexual and emotional abuse. Girls showed significantly higher awareness and differentiation across abuse types, especially those with lower initial knowledge. Future prevention programmes should focus in depth on the concept of neglect and sexual violence in particular as these were areas where children's knowledge was lower, especially among boys and those in more deprived school settings.","PeriodicalId":48052,"journal":{"name":"Child Maltreatment","volume":" ","pages":"10775595261436783"},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2026-03-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147515889","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Small urban andrural tracts had higher CMR rates-26.6 and 33.7 per 1,000, respectively-than large urbantracts, even after controlling for a range of socioeconomic-demographic variables. Reported children in rural and small urban areas had greater odds of substantiation, service case opening,and foster care entry, as well as higher odds of re-involvement. Among children in care, those inrural areas were more likely to be placed farther from their families, and those in rural and smallurban areas faced higher risks of termination of parental rights.

Addressing these rural-urbaninequities requires recognizing geography as a structural determinant and developing place-based policy and resource strategies to promote equity.","PeriodicalId":48052,"journal":{"name":"Child Maltreatment","volume":" ","pages":"10775595261435598"},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2026-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147475953","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Findings indicated that SSWers who were White (OR = 1.61, p = .034), OR = 0.77, p = .004), worked in a school serving higher proportions of low-income students (OR = 1.2, p = .002), and had higher levels of satisfaction with CPS (OR = 1.26, p = .013) and mandated reporting (OR = 0.74, p = .003) had significantly higher CAN reporting frequency.

Some diverted families closed at investigation are referred to Community Response Programs (CRPs) to prevent future maltreatment, but such referrals are rarely tracked, and prior evaluations mix CRP definitions, populations, and follow-up times yielding inconsistent findings. This study addresses this gap by comparing high-risk families diverted from CPS that participated in a CRP between 2013 and 2018 to a randomly selected comparison group that was closed at investigation but did not receive the CRP. Propensity score analyses produced a matched sample of 473 CRP participants and a matched comparison group of 473 children, and logistic regression models estimated CRP's effect on re-reports and substantiations at one year and overall after service completion. Families who received CRP had lower re-report and substantiation rates than comparison families overall (though the re-report rate at 1 year was only marginally significant). Findings suggest CRPs are a promising component of the post-investigation services continuum for high-risk families diverted from CPS and underscore the value of rigorous evaluation methods in advancing child welfare practice.","PeriodicalId":48052,"journal":{"name":"Child Maltreatment","volume":" ","pages":"10775595261430080"},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2026-02-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147285725","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using tract-level regressions for all 2021 census tracts and individual-level logistic regressions for 153,850 reported children and 6,736 foster care entrants, we assessed key decision points. The Black-White disparity in report rates-nearly twofold unadjusted-was fully explained by neighborhood poverty and single-parent family rates, providing no empirical support for racially biased reporting. Latino children had consistently lower report rates than White children despite higher socioeconomic disadvantage, replicating the \"Latino paradox.\" Among reported children, Black and other-race children generally had equal or lower odds than White children of substantiation, Intact Family Services (IFS), foster care placement, or re-involvement; Latino children showed slightly higher odds for substantiation and IFS. In foster care, non-White children were more likely to experience frequent placement disruptions and, for Black children, non-kin placements, but had no worse outcomes for distant placement, termination of parental rights, or permanency. Findings indicate disparities are front-loaded at the reporting stage, largely reflecting structural socioeconomic inequities rather than differential CPS treatment, underscoring the need for upstream poverty reduction and family support to advance child welfare equity.","PeriodicalId":48052,"journal":{"name":"Child Maltreatment","volume":" ","pages":"10775595261428148"},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2026-02-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146208288","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
