Who comprises the child welfare workforce?

This is the second in a series of quiz questions related to The CWLA National Blueprint's vision, principles and guidance for the future of child welfare. The CWLA National Blueprint is a new set of overarching standards for all individuals, organizations, and communities that unify the existing programmatic CWLA Standards of Excellence. The CWLA National Blueprint recognizes that responsibility for the well-being of children and youth begins with their families, and extends beyond traditional child welfare organizations and services. Everyone—families, communities, providers, and organizations—has a responsibility for ensuring the safety, permanency and well-being of all children and youth. The document raises the bar for everyone caring for and about children and youth. It is intended to be a foundation upon which families, communities, providers, and other organizations can create the greatest opportunities for all children and youth to succeed and flourish.

The CWLA National Blueprint for Excellence in Child Welfare will be released during CWLA's upcoming annual conference on April 14-17th, and inspires the conference theme, Making Children and Families a Priority: Raising the Bar.
