摘要
The impact of the developmental and health problems of young children on child welfare outcomes is studied using 1999 AFCARS data that reports on children in foster care throughout the United States. Study findings indicate that developmental and health problems are associated with higher numbers of out-of-home placements, longer stays in foster care, decreased likelihood of return to parental care, and higher foster care costs. Study findings are interpreted as indicating a need for more research on how young children with developmental and medical conditions are managed within the child welfare system.
