Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. Child-caring organizations flourished in the late 1800s in New York. However, this book presents the proceedings of a conference in 1893 where leaders in the field convened to address ways to improve the effectiveness of the child welfare system in the state. The conference brought together a wide range of voices and perspectives, and the published proceedings include speeches, discussions, and reports from the three-day event. The centerpiece of the conference was the belief that children should be raised in families, not institutions. However, opinions varied on how to place and supervise children, resulting in a complex set of issues that this book explores, including the resistance to placing out systems, the lack of training for placing out agents, and the lack of consistent and effective supervision to ensure the well-being of placed-out children. Given the profound shift toward family-centered care that occurred over the next century, this book provides historical context for today's foster care models.
