TY - JOUR PY - 1991// TI - Crafting a federal legislative framework for child welfare reform JO - American journal of orthopsychiatry A1 - Allen, Mike SP - 610 EP - 623 VL - 61 IS - 4 N2 - The nature and scope of the problems plaguing child welfare systems across the country make federal solutions especially urgent. A decade after enactment of the Adoption Assistance and Child Welfare Act (PL 96-272), legislation is pending that builds on its framework to enhance services and supports for vulnerable children and their families.
