Foster-Adoptive Programs in Public Social Service Agencies: Toward Flexible Family Resources.
Mica, Maryanne D.; Vosler, Nancy R.
Child Welfare, v69 n5 p433-46 Sep-Oct 1990
The theory of foster-adoptive programs is explained and analyzed. The term "flexible family resource" describes the acceptance by trained families of children who have not yet had parental rights terminated, and thus may return to their biological parents at some time. Although this idea is promising, further research is indicated. (DG)
