ABSTRACTJBI protocol for umbrella reviews was applied in the narrative synthesis of data from four systematic reviews and one meta-analysis through an intersectionality lens to isolate empirical evidence specifically related to foster parents and placement stability. Twelve of sixteen foster parent factors identified as associated with placement stability are related to social-emotional competencies (SEC). Recommendations include further exploration of the connection between SEC of foster parents and placement stability, more research regarding foster parent emotional health, and increased focus on intersectionality of variables related to placement types and outcome.KEYWORDS: Foster parentsystematic reviewplacement stabilityintersectionalityfoster care Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Data availability statementNo original data was collected in this literature review and narrative synthesis. Data was synthesized from systematic reviews included in this umbrella review. Data can be obtained from original sources as made available by original source authors.Additional informationFundingThere is no funding for this research.Notes on contributorsJeanna T.

ABSTRACTPoverty has long been indicated as a risk factor for child maltreatment. This review aims to synthesize the existing literature regarding the relationship between income-level poverty and child maltreatment in the United States. Of the 27 studies included, approximately 40% measured poverty using only income indicators, and 71% measured child maltreatment using administrative data. While the type of child maltreatment varied across studies, the associations generally revealed that higher income decreased the risk of child maltreatment, or families living in poverty had a higher risk of child maltreatment. The current study proposed several child welfare-related implications based on the findings.KEYWORDS: Povertychild maltreatmentsystematic reviewincomewelfare benefit Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1. Because some studies used more than two indicators to measure child maltreatment, the total n and estimated percentage may not equal the total number of records screened for analysis (N = 27).2. Most studies reported more than one finding, so the total n and percentage may not be summed to 27 and exceed 100%.Additional informationNotes on contributorsJinyung KimJinyung Kim is a Postdoctoral Fellow with the University of Maryland, School of Social Work.

ABSTRACTIntroduction The child welfare system’s method of service delivery shifted abruptly during the pandemic to a telehealth modality. The perceived impact of this change upon service delivery is largely unknown, however. The purpose of this study was to describe how a large child welfare agency shifted to telehealth delivery, including investigating barriers and innovative strategies that were undertaken to resolve obstacles and enhance engagement and the provision of services.Method In September, 2020, direct service providers, supervisors and clinic directors at a large, Southeastern child welfare agency completed a survey that tapped into the perceived impact of telehealth on service delivery, and barriers and benefits of telehealth delivery. Twenty-six (n = 26) individuals completed the survey.Results Over half of participants reported an improvement in service delivery through the use of telehealth, and most saw it as being beneficial to both families and staff. Few participants believed that services were negatively impeded by telehealth.The main barrier to telehealth delivery was technology access and navigation (both on the part of families and staff).Discussion Telehealth was largely perceived as a facilitator to child welfare service delivery; implications and use of remote platforms are discussed.KEYWORDS: Child welfare systeCOVID-19service delivery during the pandemicperceived barriers and facilitators to telehealthImpact of telehealth on service provision Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationNotes on contributorsMary C AcriMary C.

在大流行期间，儿童福利系统的服务提供方式突然转变为远程医疗模式。然而，这种变化对服务提供的影响在很大程度上是未知的。本研究的目的是描述一家大型儿童福利机构如何转向远程保健服务，包括调查障碍和为解决障碍、加强参与和提供服务而采取的创新战略。方法2020年9月，东南部一家大型儿童福利机构的直接服务提供者、主管和诊所主任完成了一项调查，调查了远程医疗对服务提供的影响，以及远程医疗提供的障碍和好处。26人(n = 26)完成了调查。结果半数以上的与会者报告说，通过使用远程保健改善了服务的提供，大多数与会者认为这对家庭和工作人员都有利。很少有与会者认为，远程保健对服务造成了负面阻碍。远程保健服务的主要障碍是技术获取和导航(家庭和工作人员都是如此)。远程保健在很大程度上被视为促进儿童福利服务的提供;讨论了远程平台的含义和使用。关键词:儿童福利制度covid -19大流行期间的服务提供感知远程医疗的障碍和促进因素远程医疗对服务提供的影响披露声明作者未报告潜在的利益冲突。作者简介:mary C.

Caregivers can provide insight into the welfare aspects of institutional child maltreatment not apparent to children in care. This qualitative study investigated how socio-ecological and contextual aspects of the welfare system were linked to (quality of) care provision and the well-being of minors in care. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 12 Swiss former caregivers. Welfare aspects included a shortage of resources, poor working conditions, and lack of oversight by the authorities. Social norms also contributed to stigmatization, discrimination, and the normalization of adverse care practices. Potential protective factors included external support and resource provision, caregiver resistance, and (later) social acknowledgment.

ABSTRACTUnderstanding child maltreatment on a national level is complicated by lack of consistency in definitions of abuse and reporting by state. Adolescents experience child maltreatment, but responses to their maltreatment likely differ from younger children due to differences in development and vulnerability. The present study examined state variations of adolescent child protective systems reports using data from the 2015–2019 NCANDS. We calculated the rates of maltreatment reports, substantiations, and maltreatment subtypes per 1,000 adolescents in the population. Findings revealed wide variations across all three measured rates. Examining state variations involved with CPS is critical to informing policy and practice solutions.KEYWORDS: Child abuse and neglectchild protectionadolescentschild maltreatmentchild welfare Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationNotes on contributorsLucinda OkineLucinda Okine is a PhD Candidate at the USC Suzanne Dworak-Peck School of Social Work at the University of Southern California.

ABSTRACTThis study aimed to identify latent classes of child welfare placement histories, with a focus on entry to residential treatment settings (RTS), and how youth behavior and development are associated with the probability of latent class membership. This study utilized secondary child welfare administrative data. The study found that a four-class model was the best fit for the data. The four latent classes were defined by instability while in family settings, stability in kinship care, movement through congregate care settings, and stability in non-kinship foster care. Youth behavior and developmental period were significantly associated with latent class membership.KEYWORDS: Residential treatment for youthlatent class analysischild developmentChild welfareOut-of-home care AcknowledgmentsDeclaration of Interest: The author reports that there are no competing interests to declare.Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationNotes on contributorsLauren Pryce McCarthyLauren Pryce McCarthy is the Berger Fellow at the Kempe Center for the Prevention and Treatment of Child Abuse and Neglect.
