This report explores the challenges and opportunities of improving mandated parent training. Drawing on lessons from research and practice it calls on states, courts and communities to use a more intentional, cost effective, and strategic approach to required parent training.
Strong evidence links social-emotional health in early childhood to subsequent school success and health in the preteen and teen years, and to long term health and wellbeing in adulthood. Effective programs that address social-emotional health early in life can promote resilience and actually prevent mental health problems later in life. This report gives local stakeholders the information and tools necessary to develop and use indicators for social-emotional development.
Parental employment, parental education, family structure and other variables each play an important role in predicting the likelihood that a child will endure economic hardship. We break down the facts and figures into five age groups of children: Under Age 3, Under Age 6, Ages 6 to 11, Ages 12 to 17, and Children Under 18.
