Addressing Disproportionality Throughout
States and Communities

The Positioning Public Child Welfare Initiative (PPCWI) is a national project led by NAPCWA in partnership with Casey Family Programs. The Initiative is designed to reform child welfare by positioning the field to speak with one voice about: its purpose and roles in improving outcomes for vulnerable children, youth and families; the principles and standards that guide the work of the field and its professionals; and the ways in which the field evaluates itself and continuously innovates. Because disproportionality is a pervasive issue throughout the child welfare system, the occurrence of disproportionality is addressed as an area of concentration in the PPCWI project.
