National Title IV-E Website has been established to build Title IV-E Child Welfare Agency/University Partnerships among participating universities in the United States. This website is also a collaborative network among faculty in social work education programs with the focus on child welfare, both nationally and internationally. It aims to connect with public child welfare practitioners and administrators through discussions on the use of training and educational materials. Information provided in this website will help prepare undergraduate and graduate students for work in the field of public child welfare.
