Abstract:
The Children's Bureau is proposing to continue collecting the National Child Abuse and Neglect System (NCANDS) data using two files of the Detailed Case Data Component (DCDC): (1) Child File, the case-level component of NCANDS and (2) Agency File, the aggregate data component. NCANDS has been collecting data on behalf of the Children's Bureau since 1991. The Children's Bureau is seeking re-approval of these instruments with modifications. The modifications are to comply with two laws that amended the Child Abuse and Prevention Treatment Act: 1) Justice for Victims of Trafficking Act of 2015 and 2) Comprehensive Addiction and Recovery Act (CARA) of 2016. The Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act (42 U.S.C. 5101 et seq.) requires all States that receive Basic State Grant funds to provide specific data elements, to the extent practicable, to the federal government. Historically, the data items in this area of CAPTA have been incorporated into NCANDS.
