RE: child welfare systems

["McLeod, Sandra" <smcleod@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Todd,

 

The Children's Bureau has two charts available online that may be of assistance to you. The first chart demonstrates the number of children entering, exiting, and in-care, by State, for the years 1999-2003 (http://www.acf.dhhs.gov/programs/cb/stats_research/afcars/statistics/entryexit2002.htm). In addition, there is a chart that provides data, by State, on the number of children in foster care who are awaiting adoption (1999 - 2004) at http://www.acf.dhhs.gov/programs/cb/stats_research/afcars/waiting2004.htm. Please be sure to read the Notes for each chart.

 

I hope this information is helpful.

Dear List Members

 

Can someone tell me or help me find which states have the most children involved with their child welfare system? 

 

Todd
