虐待儿童需要广泛的预防性政策和做法，但政府在这一问题上投入的资金和领导有限。虽然存在防止虐待的有效战略，但这些战略在儿童福利系统中的应用有限。在这篇文章中，我们追踪了政府在防止虐待儿童方面的责任如何成为国家儿童保护对策的核心。此外，我们还讨论了预防科学的发展，回顾了关于一系列预防策略有效性的现有文献，并提出了预防的公共卫生方法。文章最后提出了一系列建议，旨在通过寻求扩大实施循证预防方案的能力，同时解决加剧虐待儿童风险的不良社区经历，为未来防止虐待儿童的努力提供参考。
Child maltreatment calls for a broad range of preventative policies and practices, but limited governmental funding and leadership has been devoted to the problem. Effective strategies to prevent maltreatment exist, but they have had limited uptake in the child welfare system. In this article, we trace how government responsibility for the prevention of child maltreatment became centered within the nation's child protection response. Further, we discuss developments in prevention science, review the existing literature on the effectiveness of a range of prevention strategies, and present a public health approach to prevention. The article concludes with a set of recommendations to inform future efforts to prevent child maltreatment through approaches that seek to expand capacity for the implementation of evidence-based prevention programs, while addressing the adverse community experiences that exacerbate risk for child maltreatment.
