About us
A service of the Children's Bureau, Child Welfare Information Gateway connects child welfare, adoption, and related professionals to resources on child welfare, child abuse and neglect, out-of-home care, adoption, and more. We aim to promote the safety, permanency, and well-being of children, youth, and families through access to print and electronic publications, websites, databases, and online learning tools that improve child welfare practice and can be shared with families.
