Abstract:
Our research, policy implementation and practice work have been informed by more than a decade of persuasive scholarship on the need to adopt a public health approach to the care and protection of children. We have also been engaged with and excited by the attempts to adopt a public health approach as described in Chap. 1 and throughout this book.
