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.
