Children with SHCN: Data Brief 2
The results of Brief 1 indicated that children with special health care needs (SHCN) experienced more challenges in foster care compared to the experiences of children with no SHCN. However, it is important to evaluate which condition(s) is contributing the most to these variations. In addition to examining the same child welfare outcomes that were evaluated in Brief 1, this brief investigates the child’s removal from home while also considering the type of diagnosis or diagnoses of the child.
