Abstract | This study queried caseworkers for 77 New York children in out-of-home care still waiting for placement to determine obstacles to permanent adoption. Questionnaires sought demographics, placement efforts, and caseworker opinions. Findings indicated several obstacles, including the following: child's strong emotional ties to family (foster or birth) member; sibling-group membership; and medical or psychiatric condition.
