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