Reviews & analyzes the politicization of the labyrinthine foster care system in New York City. Emphasis is placed on the political influences & interferences in the foster care system, & lack of direction & initiatives of senior administrators who are political appointees of the Mayor. Political & ideological agendas are responsible for undermining the credibility & the effectiveness of the child welfare agency. The lack of planning & concern for its social workers & the lack of professionalism demonstrate the many contradictions of the agency. The privatization & contracting out of foster care services to voluntary agencies by the Administration for Children's Services (ACS) is discussed. "An important book based on both personal experience & meticulous, scholarly research."--Seth Farber, Ph.D., author of Madness, Heresy, & the Rumor of Angels. "This book provides the strongest indictment ever seen yet of the fiscally driven & morally insensitive child welfare system."--Amy Neustein, Ph.D., Founder: Help Us Regain the Children (HURT).
