  • Title: Family-centered child welfare services: new life for a historic idea.
    Author: Stehno SM.
    Journal: Child Welfare; 1986; 65(3):231-40. PubMed ID: 3709278.
    Abstract:
    The recent emphasis on permanency planning in child welfare has strengthened the resolve of policy makers and service providers to serve the families of dependent children better. Permanency planning asks child welfare services either to reunite children in care with their families of origin or to find permanent substitute families for children, but the goal of a permanent family for every child has been much easier to articulate than it has been to achieve.
