Abstract

This study of school-age children reported for maltreatment investigated whether child welfare services moderated the risk of later juvenile corrections entry and what factors explained juvenile corrections entry among children who received child welfare services. Non-White children who received in-home child welfare services had a lower risk of juvenile corrections than those receiving no services. Among children who received child welfare services, those also receiving mental health services were at higher risk of juvenile corrections entry.
