Timely Permanency for Children

With funding from the Dave Thomas Foundation for Adoption, experts working in policy, practice, research, and philanthropy settings met to discuss data on foster care children including time to permanency and their health and well-being. In addition, key gaps in the research were discussed and potential policy solutions were highlighted to achieve more timely permanence. Potential directions for a consensus study were discussed.
