Reunification - a podcast by A service of the Childrens Bureau, ACF/HHS

This episode focuses on the current reality of reunification across our public child welfare system. Listeners will hear a conversation among child welfare professionals, members of the American Bar Association (ABA) Center on Children and the Law, the Children’s Bureau, and an alumnus of foster care.

Topics discussed include the following:
• What the data indicate regarding reunifying families involved in the child welfare system
• What the Federal government and national partners are doing to increase reunification
• The racial inequities, specifically for teen boys of color, within reunification efforts
• How local agencies, caseworkers, and communities can shift their mindsets and actions to ensure reunification is treated as the primary goal when children are removed from their families
