Young People in Out-of-Home Care
Robert J. Flynn · 2023
62/100
👎 Skip It
This is a serious, data-rich academic study built on two decades of real research into kids in foster and out-of-home care, and it clearly matters to the people who work in that field. But it's a scholarly reference for social workers and policymakers, not something the average reader or teen would pick up and enjoy.
