Acknowledgments

Author

Marsha K. Salus, M.S.W., is a social work consultant. She has worked in the child welfare field for 28 years. She began her career as a CPS caseworker, and then became a CPS supervisor. She has developed several national curricula for child welfare workers and supervisors, including a number of preservice and inservice training programs for child welfare workers and supervisors in a variety of States. Ms. Salus also has developed a 12-day core supervisory training program entitled "Mastering the Art of Child Welfare Supervision," which she has delivered throughout the country. In addition, she has provided training on all aspects of family violence to multidisciplinary audiences around the country. Ms. Salus has assisted State and local CPS agencies in program development and evaluation, and she has worked with several States to establish standards of practice for child welfare supervision.
