Summary

The Quality Improvement Center on Domestic Violence in Child Welfare (QIC-DVCW) is a five-year federal cooperative agreement with the Children's Bureau to test an approach to improve how child welfare agencies and their partners work collaboratively to help families experiencing domestic violence. The safety and well-being of child survivors of domestic violence and child maltreatment are closely connected to the safety and well-being of the adult survivor of domestic violence. For this reason, the QIC-DVCW is testing an Adult \& Child Survivor-Centered Approach to addressing the needs of both the parent and child, which includes effectively engaging and working with the person causing them harm. The following four research questions were developed to guide the work of the Recipient's evaluation of the QIC-DVCW, and Provider's data will help to answer these questions:

1. Does a collaborative, adult and child survivor-centered approach-that includes safely engaging and establishing accountability of the DV offender-improve adult and child survivor safety, child permanence, and child and family well-being for child welfare involved families experiencing DV?
2. For which families and in which social contexts does an adult and child survivor-centered approach improve these outcomes?
3. What factors are associated with successful implementation and sustainability of an adult and child survivor-centered approach?
4. What are the costs associated with the implementation and maintenance of an adult and child survivor-centered approach, and how do these costs compare to the costs of "practice as usual"?
