Childhood maltreatment captured medical attention almost 50 years ago. Reviews considering the evidence for published maltreatment prevention programming emerged about 20 years ago. In the second decade of the 21st century, evidence-based maltreatment prevention is a reality for at-risk groups; however, the research-to-practice and policy gap remains in most countries. This article considers the importance of personal financial health and how that is necessarily the building blocks of national health. It argues for the primacy of the goal of problem prevention-the prevention of childhood maltreatment. A twofold approach is suggested: (1) broad-scale adoption of evidence-based prevention and (2) and on-going commitment to refining the evidence base for effective, promising, and novel intervention.
儿童期虐待问题早在近 50 年前就引起了医学界的关注。大约 20 年前，开始出现对已发表的虐待预防方案相关证据的综述。在 21 世纪的第二个十年，基于循证的虐待预防已成为高危群体的现实；然而，在大多数国家，研究到实践和政策之间仍然存在差距。本文探讨了个人财务健康的重要性，以及个人财务健康如何必然是国家健康的基石。本文主张预防问题的首要目标——预防儿童期虐待。为此，本文提出了一种双重方法：（1）广泛采用基于证据的预防措施，（2）持续致力于完善有效的、有前途的和新颖的干预措施的证据基础。
