Note: Teams could select more than one child safety system development measure. Average change is calculated using the fold ratio formula, indicating the number of times the end of cohort unit changed from the beginning of the cohort. For an increase, the end of cohort unit is divided by the beginning of cohort unit. For a decrease, the beginning of cohort unit is divided by the end of cohort unit and the result is noted as a negative.
*Decreases reported by teams were associated with the impact of COVID-19 and reduced staffing on their child safety work.
