Abstract
Child Welfare Research Collaborative will support the Department of Children and Family Services goal to increase placement stability. This support will include two projects: (1) evaluation of effectiveness of Clinical Intervention for Placement Preservation (CIPP) program and the Clinical Intervention for Placement Preservation- Discharge, and (2) prospective data collection and analysis for the foster parent survey, including merging of new CANS and DCFS administrative data sources to identify predictors of negative and positive placement outcomes among high risk youth.
