CENTER FOR SOCIAL SERVICES RESEARCH School of Social Welfare, UC Berkeley big picture trends large/consistent caseload declines over time –1999 (peak)= 109,396 –2004 = 83,085 –2009 = 61,004 (with further declines, 2010 = 57,877) why? –flow of children exiting from foster care has consistently outpaced flow of children entering into care

CENTER FOR SOCIAL SERVICES RESEARCH School of Social Welfare, UC Berkeley

big picture trends (part 2) time children spend in foster care has been declining evidence? –a greater percentage of children exit to permanency within 48 months of first entering care –point-in-time counts of children in foster care at a given age highlight that young children who enter care, are not (typically) staying for very long

CENTER FOR SOCIAL SERVICES RESEARCH School of Social Welfare, UC Berkeley where is work still needed? Rates of Black children in care have declined even more than rates for other children, but racial disparities remain pronounced Black children are overrepresented among children who are in foster care, and their disproportionality is greatest for children who have been in care for longer timeframes
