Abstract
Child and adolescent psychiatrists are critical partners supporting child welfare goals of permanency, safety, and well-being. However, they do so in the context of many challenges, including the emotional and behavioral sequelae of maltreatment, complex family structures, and multiple systems of care. Failure to provide leadership within and across these systems risks the following: poor short-term outcomes; reduced permanency, safety and well-being; and long-term limits to functional capacity. This presentation aims to provide information about child welfare and partner systems that will strengthen the capacity of child and adolescent psychiatrists to provide comprehensive clinical care, address challenges facing children and families, and advocate for system changes that support positive outcomes.
