foster care and childbirth

["Mark F. Schmitz" <mschmitz@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello all,

I'm working on some analyses that look at various adulthood outcomes of
foster care.  Right now, I'm looking at the rate of childbirth for young
adults (21-30 years old) who were raised in the foster care system at some
time in their childhood or adolescence.  Does anybody know of any research
that has examined this issue?

Thanks,
Mark Schmitz
