Abstract

This chapter provides an overview of empirically supported intervention and prevention programs for child maltreatment. For each intervention and prevention program, we outline the content and delivery of the program, review the empirical support for the program, and discuss any cross-cultural evaluations or adaptations to the program. In addition to reviewing intervention/prevention programs, the chapter also provides discussion of child maltreatment definitions (and difficulties in determining and applying such definitions), prevalence, and theories. Research limitations and challenges within the field of child maltreatment intervention and prevention are outlined. Recommendations are also provided for future research and child maltreatment policy.
