Take Me Home: Protecting America's Vulnerable Children and Families
Take Me Home: Protecting America’s Vulnerable Children and Families
Jill Duerr Berrick
There is a profound crisis in the United States’ foster care system, Jill Duerr Berrick writes in this expertly researched, passionately written book. No state has passed the federally mandated Child and Family Service Review; two-thirds of the state systems have faced class-action lawsuits demanding change; and most tellingly, well over half of all children who enter foster care never go home. The field of child welfare has lost its way and is neglecting its fundamental responsibility to the most vulnerable children and families in America.
