Supervising Child Protective Services Caseworkers

This manual, Supervising Child Protective Services Caseworkers, provides the foundation for effective supervisory practice in child protective services (CPS). It describes the roles and responsibilities of the CPS supervisor, and it provides practice-oriented advice on how to carry out supervisory responsibilities effectively. Best practices and critical issues in supervisory practice are underscored throughout. While the manual is designed primarily for CPS supervisors and administrators and reflects state-of-the-art management research and practices tailored to CPS, it also is relevant to all child welfare supervisors. In addition, it may be useful to child welfare agency staff who train supervisory personnel and to schools of social work as they prepare new social workers for the child welfare field.
