Abstract
► Kinship placements are significantly more stable than non-kin foster placements. ► This difference is seen whether children were physically/sexually abused or not. ► Kin placements more often end by discharge to parents than do foster placements. ► Placements with unrelated nominal “kin” are no more stable than foster placements. ► Kin placements are more stable if preceded by a foster placement than if not.
