Abstract

The article recounts the Children's Bureau early use of consultation and dissemination to shape how public agencies administer child welfare services to later providing federal financial investment in the child welfare workforce. The article then traces the Children's Bureau's evolution from funding general social work education and child welfare training to more strategic initiatives that focus on the priorities of the child welfare system and the development of state agency leadership.
