Research by national organizations has consistently shown a connection between placement stability and time to permanency. Research also indicates that black children are more likely than white children to experience delays in permanency, especially with multiple placement changes during out-of-home care. This CIP Café will examine placement stability between black and white children during the first 30 days of foster care and possible strategies to improve permanency outcomes.
