Abstract	This paper focuses on the challenges of helping children after abuse and neglect has occurred by strengthening the web of supports for children and families in foster care. It examines the current state of the foster care system and finds that it is really not a cohesive system but a combination of many overlapping and interacting agencies, all charged with providing services, financial support, or other assistance to children and their families. It offers policy and practice recommendations that can improve how children and families experience foster care. (Contains 120 endnotes.) (ERIC).
