DENVER, Feb. 26 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The National Quality Improvement Center on Non-Resident Fathers and the Child Welfare System (QIC-NRF) today announced the four projects that have been selected to receive funding from the Administration of Children and Families in the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services from 2008 to 2011. The purpose of the sub-grants is the experimentation of a model intervention and evaluation of child outcomes as the selected sites and the QIC-NRF join efforts to research the engagement of non-resident fathers with their children who are involved in the child welfare system. Through this national effort, the QIC-NRF hopes to improve ultimate child-welfare outcomes of safety, permanency and well-being.
