Title: Community Prevention of Child Maltreatment

Community Prevention of Child Maltreatment
  • Kenneth A. Dodge
  • Presentation to the University of California
    Irvine
  • April 14, 2014
  • Support is appreciated from The Duke Endowment,
    the Pew Center on the States, NIDA, and NICHD.
    Colleagues are Robert Murphy, Karen ODonnell,
    Ben Goodman, Jeannine Sato, and Sue Guptil.

Plan for This Presentation
  • 1. Propose model of how child maltreatment occurs
  • 2. Describe Durham Connects Intervention and RCT
  • 3. Discuss financing of Connects and other
    programs

4
The Challenge to Change Community Rates of Child
Maltreatment
  • The Duke Endowments interest and ten-year
    commitment
  • Requirements in a response
  • Replicable model based in developmental science
  • Rigorous evaluation of impact
  • Community rate of maltreatment / child well-being
    as the dependent variable
  • No program had ever successfully changed
    community rates.
  • Initial plan
  • Formulate a model of child maltreatment based on
    study of risk and processes
  • Pilot several intervention and policy ideas
  • Test through a randomized controlled trial

Project MOM
Representative sample of 500 pregnant Durham
residents, interviewed in mid-trimester and
followed through age 36 months. 17 had been
physically abused or neglected. 9.6 reported
substance-use problems. 44 reported at least
one mental health problem. 62 reported poverty
or Medicaid. By age 26 months, 8 of offspring
had been reported as maltreated by official
record review.

Traditional Institute of Medicine Modelof
Intervention Development (Mrazek Haggerty,
1994)
  • Basic science inspires intervention
  • Intervention is developed in a university setting
  • under pristine circumstances
  • Randomized controlled trial (efficacy) with
    volunteer sample
  • Replicate in community setting (effectiveness
    trial)
  • Scale up to other communities

14
Reasons Why Scaling Up Small Programs Has Failed
  • Rarely intend to have policy impact at the outset
  • Selection bias in who participates in university
    study
  • Heterogeneity of population
  • When scaling up, penetration and retention low
    (35-50)
  • Degradation of intervention fidelity and quality
    (scale-up penalty of 50)
  • Over-estimate of community capacity to meet needs
  • NFP relies on nurse to assert competitive
    advantage for resources

15
Model of Universal Parent Intervention
  • 1. Top down policy
  • -- Preventive System of Care
  • -- Align resources
  • -- Screen all families
  • 2. Bottom up with families
  • -- Assess to identify risks/needs
  • -- Improve community connectedness
  • -- Teach cognitions

16
Three Steps to Durham Connects
  • 1. Connect with family
  • Universal recruitment at birthing hospital
  • Home visit(s) by public health nurse
  • Assess 12 risk factors, quantify risk
  • 2. Connect family with community, as needed
  • Professional, paraprofessional, and natural
  • 3. So that parents can connect with infant
  • Improve cognitions, parent-infant relationship

17
Durham Connects
  • Piloted for three years before RCT.
  • Per-family cost of about 700, delivered
    universally.
  • 4-7 intervention contacts with triaging.
  • Birthing-hospital visit
  • 1-3 home visits between 3-8 weeks of infant age
  • 1-2 contacts with a community service provider
  • Follow-up one month later
  • Community resources aligned to improve capacity
  • (e.g., Cribs for Kids, Mentors, bus routes, DSS
    worker)
  • Agency MoA to follow a Preventive System of Care.

18
Evaluation Design for Durham Connects
  • Randomly assign by even-odd birthdate
  • 4,780 births between 7-1-09 and 12-31-10
  • Recruit even birthdates into intervention
  • No contact with controls
  • Analyze by intent-to-treat
  • Administrative record review of all births
  • Random sample (n686, 80.0 participation) from
    birth records for in-home interview at age 6 mos.

19
Implementation Findings
  • Penetration
  • 80.0 of families agree
  • Of these, 85.9 complete
  • Fidelity to protocol
  • Independent rater for 11
  • 85 compliance by nurse

20
Scoring of Risk
Nurse scores each of 12 risk factors on 4-point
scale 1 indicates no risk 2 indicates minor
risk, resolved by nurse 3 indicates
considerable risk, referral 4 indicates
imminent risk, emergency -- Inter-rater
reliability of scoring of risk Kappa .69 45
of families score at least one 3 49 of
families score 2s but no higher 6 of
families score all 1s 39 of all
families connected to community service

Impacts at Age 6 Months(Dodge et al., 2013,
Pediatrics)
  • Mother-reported positive parenting behaviors
  • -- higher for intervention than control
  • (ES .25, p lt .01)
  • Blinded observer-rated mother parenting quality
  • -- higher for intervention than control
  • (ES .23, p lt .05)
  • 3. Child care center quality rating (when in
    care)
  • -- higher for intervention than control
  • (ES .85, p lt . 01)

Impacts at at Age 6 Months(Dodge et al., 2013,
Pediatrics)

4. Mother-rated father-infant relationship --
better for intervention (ES.21, plt.07) 5.
Observer-rated home safety -- better for
intervention (ES.22, plt.05) 6. Prob of
mother clinical anxiety -- lower for
intervention (OR.65,plt.04)

Utah by Goldman/Pritzker - SC by
Goldman/Pritzker 250mil fund by Goldman Sachs

Current Plans
  • 1. Continue follow-up of RCT
  • through age 66 months.
  • 2. New RCT now ongoing.
