Child Welfare Agency Climate: Congruence with Practice Model Beliefs

Abstract

This exploratory analysis considers the extent to which child welfare staff members' perceptions of organizational climate impact congruence with core beliefs for a specific practice model. The results suggest that measures of organizational climate may be associated with child welfare staff members' endorsement of specific practice model beliefs involving safety. As agencies implement and develop specific best practice approaches or more comprehensive practice models, administrators and managers can use these results to consider how to assess and respond to the influence of climate on the process.
