Product Description:

Intake and termination data from two samples of substance-using and/or HIV-positive mothers of minor children were collected from 17 projects across the U.S. Service utilization data collected from the initial sample was modeled using hierarchical classes (HICLAS) analysis. HICLAS identified three classes of service utilization: Services to Meet Basic Needs, Treatment/Support Services, and Pediatric/Developmental Services. After propensity score adjustments, we evaluated whether these service classes predicted child placement at termination: living with biological mother without Child Protective Service (CPS) involvement, living with biological mother with CPS involvement, or not living with biological mother. In both initial and replication samples, participating mothers who received Services to Meet Basic Needs and/or Pediatric/Developmental Services were more likely to be living with their index children without CPS involvement.
