Great information! Used it for several papers and thesis!

Great book with good information about the child welfare system. Speifically, I was looking for information about older youth adoptions.

Review

This is a quite comprehensive book. The authors cover a wide variety of insightful information and research in the child welfare field. Very good for anybody who will be working in a public child welfare setting or conducting research in this area. As with most academic reading, it tends to be a little dry. And, because there is so much information, sometimes it doesn't flow very well.
