US: Chronicle Report: At Least 25 States Have Lost Foster Care Capacity Since 2012
Chronicle of Social Change – October 31, 2017
The number of U.S. children in foster care has been on the rise since 2012, and most experts agree that the upward trend will continue. But what about the number of homes available to take these children? The Chronicle of Social Change, has recently completed a state-by-state research to determine whether this increase in foster youth has been met with a proportional increase in foster homes.
