Children of Color in the Child Welfare System
|
|
Children of color are "disproportionately" represented in the child welfare system, meaning that their relative numbers do not reflect those in the general United States population. In many cases they are "overrepresented", where the percentage of children of color in the child welfare system is greater than the corresponding percentage in the overall U.S. population. |
