Abstract

Prevent Child Abuse Iowa (PCA Iowa) contracted with Public Consulting Group, Inc. (PCG, formerly Hornby Zeller Associates, Inc.) to provide an update to the 2017 child maltreatment prevention needs assessment. The aim of the 2019 assessment was to use updated data to identify the counties at greatest risk for maltreatment. To achieve this aim, a county-by-county index of need was created, which incorporates actual incidence of abuse and neglect, along with the incidence of known risk factors. This document presents the findings from the 2019 assessment and is intended to be added as an addendum to the 2017 assessment.
