NCSL Fellows Programs

NCSL offers a Child Welfare Fellows program that provides legislators and legislative staff a rare opportunity to focus intensively on prevention of child maltreatment in the context of state child welfare systems. Other NCSL fellows programs also relate to child maltreatment prevention because they address risk factors and interconnected policy areas where prevention strategies can be implemented.
