CICM 项目总体摘要 虐待儿童（以下简称 CM）是一个广泛而复杂的问题，与许多负面影响有关 下游结果，并在个人、家庭和社会层面造成巨大成本。建立在 一个由来自全国各地对 CM 感兴趣的研究人员和专家组成的非凡的多学科团队 和儿童福利 (CW)，虐待儿童政策、研究和培训创新中心 （以下简称 CICM）通过全国专家网络加强这一基础，以推进跨学科 预防 CM 和促进健康的科学和创新传播和培训方法 帮助遭受虐待和忽视的儿童的发展。 CICM 行政核心 (AC) 提供科学和操作监督，有两个目标：(1) 推进复杂建模的创新 虐待预测因素的动态相互作用，以提高预防和干预的针对性 努力； (2) 在复杂病因模型的识别和真实模型之间建立双向路径 世界范围内应用创新方法进行预防和干预。为此，CICM 借鉴了 跨学科和系统科学方法，并将 AC 指导委员会转变为学习机构 协作（SCLC）支持项目，同时综合知识和创新新研究 接近。 SCLC 分为三个多学科工作组，以促进持续开展 沟通：(1) 先进分析方法和技术 (AAMT)，(2) 识别风险和 理解结果（IRO）和（3）翻译、改编和实施（TAI）。三个提议 多学科研究项目贯穿 SCLC 工作组主题，增进对文化的理解 和背景，并重点关注服务筛选、定位和协调领域的现实世界影响。 社区参与核心 (CEC) 与 AC 合作：(1) 参与研究、政策和 实践利益相关者将研究转化为政策和实践以及识别现实世界 需要研究的政策和实践问题； (2) 提供创新教育和培训 建立准备解决 CM 复杂问题的研究人员和从业人员渠道的机会。 CEC 将研究成果转化为为实践和政策利益相关者量身定制的教育和培训产品 并为下一代从业者和研究人员建立管道。 CEC 致力于实践、政策 和社区利益相关者为研究重点提供建议。 CICM 多学科领导包括 首席研究员（Jonson-Reid 博士）在资助 CM 研究和 定期与华盛顿大学 CEC 联合主任（Patterson Silver Wolf 博士）合作 圣路易斯大学（韦弗博士）。 CICM由来自11个学科的专家指导，具有强大的 机构支持提供能力应对 Capstone RFA 的几个优先领域（RFA-HD- 18-012）作为该领域的国家资源。

Overall CICM Project Abstract Child maltreatment (hereafter CM) is a widespread and complex problem, linked to a number of negative downstream outcomes and incurring substantial costs across individual, family and societal levels. Building on an extraordinary multidisciplinary group of researchers and experts from across the country interested in CM and child welfare (CW), the Center for Innovation in Child Maltreatment Policy, Research, and Training (hereafter CICM) enhances this foundation with a national network of experts to advance transdisciplinary science and innovative dissemination and training approaches to prevent CM and promote healthy development for children who have experienced abuse and neglect. The CICM Administrative Core (AC) provides scientific and operational oversight with two aims: (1) To advance innovations in modelling complex and dynamic interactions of predictors of maltreatment to improve targeting of prevention and intervention efforts; and (2) To create a bidirectional path between identification of complex etiological models and real world application of innovative approaches to prevention and intervention. To do this CICM draws on transdisciplinary and systems science methods and transforms the AC Steering Committee into a Learning Collaborative (SCLC) to support projects while also synthesizing knowledge and innovating new research approaches. The SCLC is organized into three multidisciplinary workgroups to promote ongoing communication: (1) advanced analytic methods and technologies (AAMT), (2) identifying risk and understanding outcomes (IRO) and (3) translation, adaptation and implementation (TAI). Three proposed multidisciplinary research projects crosscut SCLC workgroup themes, advance understanding of culture and context, and focus on real world impact in the areas of screening, targeting and coordination of services. The Community Engagement Core (CEC) works in concert with the AC to: (1) Engage research, policy and practice stakeholders in translation of research into policy and practice as well as identification of real world policy and practice issues that require research; and, (2) Provide innovative education and training opportunities to build a pipeline of researchers and practitioners prepared to address the complex issue of CM. The CEC translates research to tailored education and training products for practice and policy stakeholders and builds the pipeline for the next generation of practitioners and researchers. CEC engages practice, policy and community stakeholders in advising research priorities. The CICM multidisciplinary leadership includes the Principal Investigator (Dr. Jonson-Reid) who has a significant history of funded CM research and collaborates regularly with the CEC Co-Directors at Washington University (Dr. Patterson Silver Wolf) and Saint Louis University (Dr. Weaver). CICM is guided by engaged experts from 11 disciplines with strong institutional support providing the capacity to respond to several priority areas of the Capstone RFA (RFA-HD- 18-012) to serve as a national resource for the field.
