Summary
“This study examines long-term child welfare outcomes for participants in the Children’s Bureau–funded Partnerships to Demonstrate the Effectiveness of Supportive Housing for Families in the Child Welfare System—a five-year (2012–16), $25 million demonstration that provided supportive housing to families in the child welfare system. The demonstration was a randomized controlled trial that enrolled families from five geographically diverse sites across the country.
We considered how supportive housing impacted child welfare outcomes up to five years after randomization, including whether supportive housing (1) increased the likelihood that children were living at home, (2) increased the number of days that children spent at home, (3) decreased the likelihood that children had an open child welfare case, and (4) decreased the likelihood of children experiencing a new substantiated allegation.”
