Impact Reports 
The Impact Reports highlight information and outcomes gathered through administration of the Family Support Program Outcome Survey to parents and primary caregivers attending family support programs and Family Resource Centers across New Hampshire. The impact reports are one piece of NHCTF’s ongoing efforts to provide data and information regarding the positive impacts that family support programs have on the lives of children and families.

Report on Physical Punishment in the United States: What Research Tells Us About Its Effects on Children
The Report on Physical Punishment in the United States summarizes for a lay audience findings from research on physical punishment of children, the legal status in various settings across the states, the international effort to recognize physical punishment as a human rights violation, and the growing number of countries that have banned physical punishment of children in schools, homes, or both. The author is Dr. Elizabeth Gershoff, a professor in the School of Social Work at the University of Michigan and an expert on the effects of physical punishment on children. She was assisted in its development by over 30 experts from the fields of medicine, psychology, law, education, and social work.
This report has already been endorsed by several national organizations concerned with child well-being, including the American Academy of Pediatrics, the American Medical Association, the American College of Emergency Physicians, the National Association of Counsel for Children, the National Association for Regulatory Administration and the National Alliance of Children’s Trust and Prevention Funds.
