This is a print on demand edition of a hard to find publication. Everyone involved in the protection of children is committed to the goals of safety, permanency, and well-being for every child. There must be a continuous process of improving and strengthening dependency systems and cross-system supports. Performance measurement (PM) is a critical first step. We must first know how our current systems are doing. Two Federal agencies have cosponsored a broad-based effort to measure the progress of juvenile and family courts in addressing the needs of abused and neglected children. This Toolkit provides practical, comprehensive guidance on how to undertake PM and move toward more efficient and effective dependency court operations. The Toolkit is useful for any juvenile or family court. Illustrations.
