The Effect of Financing Arrangements on the Quality of Care and Client Outcomes of Persons with Severe Mental Illnesses

This analysis will assess the extent to which financing arrangements impact the likelihood that Medicaid recipients with severe mental illnesses receive mental health treatment that is consistent with recommended practice guidelines.  The analysis also will examine various cross-system individual outcomes to determine the degree to which adherence with recommended treatment practice is associated with enhanced individual outcomes.

Identifying Child Predictors of Successful Reunification and Foster Care Length of Stay After Child Maltreatment and Placement in Florida's Foster Care System

The purpose of this study is to identify child predictors of successful parent-child reunification and factors contributing to long lengths of stay in foster care after a documented occurrence of child maltreatment and foster care placement. Ideally, the set of factors identified can be used to develop effective interventions targeted to safely reunite foster care children with reduced length of stay (hence reduced public costs), and to improve parent and child relations and family functioning.
