1. The first type involves cases in which allegations of abuse or neglect are reported to the child welfare agency and a decision must be made as to whether to investigate the allegations.
2. The second type involves decisions that must be made after an investigation report is received and a child welfare agency decides to provide services to children and/ or their families but not to remove children from their biological parent(s) or legal caregivers.
3. The third type involves decisions about whether to remove children from their home and place them in foster care or another form of alternative care.

Hence, may I ask what factors should be taken into consideration when I plan a program evaluation?

Hello. Some of my colleagues suggest that we could use the theory-based model in our program evaluation. But I don’t know this model very much. Could anyone kindly give me a clue about the strengths and weaknesses of this model?

Hi, I realized that it seems the concept “outcome” is different from the term “output”. Taking the grandparent training project as an example, what is the “outcome’ referable?

I have designed a large-scale survey about the life satisfaction of low-income families in Hong Kong. Is it appropriate to use the electronic survey through mobile phones?
