Grant Description: The purpose of this program announcement is to encourage and support improvement in the quality of child abuse prevention programs by providing funding for rigorous evaluations of existing programs that have not previously been evaluated. This will continue to foster and develop the evidence base in the child abuse and neglect prevention field. Through this announcement the Children's Bureau (CB) reinforces the importance of building on the body of knowledge around evidence-based and evidence-informed practice in the field of child abuse and neglect prevention. In its efforts to do so, CB seeks to be responsive to requests from the field for more resources in conducting rigorous evaluations of existing child abuse prevention programs. Grants awarded under this priority area can only be used to fund the evaluation of a child abuse prevention program. Funds cannot be used to support program operations or services.
