5 Poverty is a risk factor for child abuse and neglect: Families with annual incomes below $15,000, compared to families with annual incomes above $30,000, are over 22 times more likely to experience some form of maltreatment. (US Dept HHS) Foundation of Vision

6 Shared Vision  Child Welfare Services can serve as an anti-poverty program in helping families to achieve Self-Sufficiency  Temporary Assistance to Needy Families can serve as a child abuse prevention program by providing families the resources they need to promote safety and well-being for their children

How Linkages Matters  CalWORKs can provide services to help prevent families from entering CWS.  Approaching families as a team provides stronger intervention to help families with complex needs.  Coordinating services for mutual families can increase safety & improve economic self-sufficiency.  Joint outreach to sanctioned families involved with child welfare removes barriers to participation.  CalWORKs families working to reunify can receive non-cash services to promote returning home safely and quickly. 14

How Linkages Matters  Family Maintenance mutual clients can access additional supports (e.g., cash assistance, employment services, MH, DV, SA, Medi-Cal or diversion services).  CalWORKs can provide post-reunification services, including child care & other safety plan services to reduce likelihood of recurrence.  Transition-age youth who are parents can routinely be assessed for and linked to CalWORKs supportive services to ensure economic self-sufficiency. 15
