Abstract
ABSTRACT Child welfare workforce retention and turnover have been increasing and chronic challenges impacting public child welfare agencies. One response has been the implementation of worker coaching and mentoring programs. In this study, we report the results of a survey of 63 mentored child welfare workers who participated in a recently implemented statewide mentoring/coaching program. Results showed high regard for assigned mentors and program quality. Further, workers attributed that mentoring positively impacted their own professional development and abilities to demonstrate the state’s practice model competencies. Program recommendations and implications for practice, policy, and future research are discussed.
