The Use of Service Statistics in Child Protection
The service statistics indicators project (SSIP) is a knowledge mobilization initiative between McGill University and fourteen of sixteen child protection organizations across Québec, Canada. The proposed partnership has been developed to (a) better understand the dynamics and outcomes of child protection services and to (b) support child protection organizations capacity to bring together questions of evidence to the forefront of management and service delivery decisions. The presentation will address the following specific objectives: 1) describe the service trajectories and outcomes for children in the Québec youth protection system; 2) describe variations in service trajectories and outcomes over time and between Québec youth protection organizations; and 3) describe the integration of longitudinal analysis within Québec youth protection organizations to inform service planning and policy development. The rate of (a) recurrence of maltreatment (b) placement in out-of-home care (c) placement instability (d) reunification (e) youth criminality and court involvement will be reported for cohorts ranging from 19,500 to 55,000 maltreated children in Québec.
