Paternal Involvement in Kinship Foster Care Services in One Father and Multiple Father Families.
O'Donnell, John M.
Child Welfare, v80 n4 p453-79 Jul-Aug 2001
Investigated fathers' involvement in planning permanent kinship foster care for their children, examining frequency of contact between fathers and caseworkers, content of these contacts, and fathers' participation in permanency planning. Found that most fathers had no contact with caseworkers and had never participated in planning. Paternal involvement varied by family composition. (JPB)
