Description

Child Welfare and the Law explores the complex relationships between the child welfare system, the judicial system, and federal legislation. Stein examines how state law addresses the care and protection of children, including adoption and protecting children with disabilities.

The book delves into the constitutional framework that underpins these systems, as well as the rights of birthparents, foster parents, and children themselves. Stein also discusses legislative versus judicial reform, the litigation process, and implementing reform measures.

Additional topics covered include professional liability, evidence and the burden of proof, building a case record, testimony from children and workers, and concluding thoughts on the subject.
