The research project explores how – i.e. by which professionals, with which practices, instruments and procedures and in which institutionalised networks – risk and stress factors and needs for support of families are assessed in Germany in the first year of a child’s life. The project investigates how these assessments become relevant for the provision of early support and/or other measures according to the Bundeskinderschutzgesetz (BKiSchG) and the Sozialgesetzbuch VIII (SGB VIII). It aims at a qualitative-empirical reconstruction of these assessments around children’s birth, with a focus on procedures and instruments that have been established since the commencement of the BKiSchG in 2012. The BKiSchG is characterised by a double orientation towards a simultaneously narrow, interventionist and a broad, preventive understanding of child protection. The BKiSchG and the establishment of early support systems led to differentiated case categorisations and accordingly to new forms of interprofessional and interinstitutional cooperation. The project focuses on those (professional) distinctions and decisions that are made below the intervention threshold in case of an endangerment of the welfare of the child (i.e. before the initiation of § 8a proceedings, SGB VIII). It investigates how case categorisations, responsibilities and delimitations are practically conducted and locally organised, and what problems arise in this context.In terms of an institutional ethnography, and in applying ethnographic and document-analytical approaches, the analysis focusses on two case levels: 1. The reconstruction of how children and their families are categorised and documented in situ with reference to risks in the context of early support and how (series of) distinctions and decisions with reference to child welfare and case constructions and processing with reference to families are practically processed. 2. The reconstruction of the local variations of practical process logics of placement in early support and/or other measures of youth welfare services. Here the case level refers to the municipal regulation and organisation of the early support and child protection networks. The ethnographic fieldwork will be conducted in contrasting fields, i.e. in the networks for early support and child protection in two large cities and two rural administrative districts.On the basis of contrastive case studies on both levels, the project aims at theoretical results that show● how preventive and interventional child protection is coupled or decoupled in situ and in different local procedural variants;● how, in the context of a broad understanding of child protection, observation spaces and networks are configured and constituted in early childhood.The project will contribute to fundamental research on the interfaces and networks of early support and child protection.

该研究项目探讨了如何-即由哪些专业人员，采用哪些实践、工具和程序以及在哪些制度化的网络中-在德国评估儿童生命第一年的风险和压力因素以及对家庭支持的需求。该项目调查这些评估如何与提供早期支持和/或根据联邦儿童教育计划（BKiSchG）和社会教育计划VIII （SGB VIII）的其他措施相关。它旨在对围绕儿童出生的这些评估进行定性-经验重建，重点关注自2012年BKiSchG启动以来建立的程序和工具。BKiSchG的特点是双重取向，即对儿童保护既有狭隘的、干预主义的理解，又有广泛的、预防性的理解。BKiSchG和早期支持系统的建立导致了不同的病例分类，并因此产生了新的专业间和机构间合作形式。该项目侧重于在危及儿童福利的情况下（即在启动SGB VIII§8a程序之前）在干预门槛以下做出的（专业）区分和决定。它调查了案例分类、责任和划界是如何实际进行和在当地组织的，以及在这种情况下出现的问题。就制度民族志而言，在运用民族志和文献分析方法时，分析侧重于两个案例层面：1。重建儿童和他们的家庭是如何根据早期支持背景下的风险进行分类和就地记录的，以及如何（一系列）与儿童福利有关的区分和决定，以及与家庭有关的案例构建和处理是如何实际处理的。2. 在早期支持和/或青年福利服务的其他措施安置的实际过程逻辑的地方变化的重建。这里的个案层面是指市政法规和早期支持和儿童保护网络的组织。人种学实地工作将在对比领域进行，即在两个大城市和两个农村行政区的早期支助和儿童保护网络中进行。在这两个层面的对比案例研究的基础上，该项目旨在获得理论结果，显示预防和干预儿童保护如何在现场和不同的地方程序变量中耦合或分离；•在对儿童保护有广泛理解的背景下，如何在幼儿期配置和构成观察空间和网络。该项目将有助于对早期支助和儿童保护的接口和网络进行基础研究。
