CPI 3.9 Abuse/Neglect Investigations and Alternative Response: Alleged and Confirmed Victim Recidivism FY2014-FY2023

Recidivism is calculated as a percentage of all alleged victims and child principals in alternative response and investigation stages, who did not receive any ongoing services, who had a subsequent confirmed allegation, or case open for ongoing services within 12 months.

Numerator: Number of children who have a confirmed allegation in an investigation or an open family preservation or substitute care stage within 12 months of a closed investigation or alternative response stage with no ongoing services.

Denominator: Number of alleged and confirmed victims in investigations (excluding admin closures) and alternative response stages closed 12 months prior with no ongoing services.

再犯率被定义为在替代反应和调查阶段中，所有被指控的受害者及儿童负责人中，未接受任何持续服务的比例，或随后有被确认指控，或案件在12个月内因持续服务而开放的比例。其中，分子代表在关闭调查或替代反应阶段且无持续服务的情况下，12个月内被确认指控或在调查或开放的家庭保护或替代照料阶段中的儿童数量。分母则指在调查（不包括行政关闭）和替代反应阶段中，12个月前关闭且无持续服务的被指控和确认受害者数量。
