This report presents results for the Urban Spatial/Predict Align Prevent analysis predicting geospatial child maltreatment risk in the District of Columbia. This document is designed to be read alongside the Urban Spatial/PAP Technical Appendix.
The goal of this analysis is to predict latent risk of child maltreatment in Washington, D.C. and create a ‘useful’ tool to help child welfare stakeholders better allocate limited community intervention resources in space.
All the tools required for replicating our analysis can be found on GitHub.
