摘要
This article reviews current research on emotional and behavioral disorders among children in foster care and summarizes findings regarding utilization of mental health services in this population. Barriers to needed care are explored, practice and policy implications of lack of care are discussed, and alternative, evidence-based treatment options for foster youth are examined and proposed.
