Abstract:
The rising prevalence of child abuse and neglect in Texas underscores the need to encourage innovative programs across the state. Primary prevention efforts catalyzed by the Children's Trust Fund of Texas demonstrate such projects. Specific evaluation techniques are also reviewed with some explanation of why some programs may be more effective than others.
