Notes: N = 41,828 (child protective services, foster care), N = 27,827 (charged and aged 16 or above). Dependent mean refers to period t – 2, and percent effect is the DiD estimate divided by the dependent mean. Standard errors in parentheses, clustered by victim. Significance: *p < 0.10, **p < 0.05.
