Abstract
The federal Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act (CAPTA) requires that a plan of safe care, called a family care plan (FCP) in Connecticut, be developed for all newborns identified as being affected by substance abuse and their caregivers. In Connecticut, FCPs are developed in treatment or hospital settings, not by child protective services. Analyzing data from Connecticut from 2019-2021, we found robust yet uneven implementation of FCPs that may have resulted in inadequate support for some affected caregiver-infant dyads. Additional implementation strategies may be needed to ensure that all dyads receive comprehensive FCPs.
