Findings from Three Research Studies on Children Reported to Child Protective Services" (Diana English); (7) "Throwing a Spotlight on the Developmental Outcomes for Children: Findings of a Seventeen-Year Follow-up Study" (Martha Farrell Erickson and Byron Egeland); and (8) "Testing Two Innovative Approaches: Summaries of Practice Project Presentations Given at the Conferences: 1.
