Abstract

The United States is facing a substance use crisis. One consequence, resulting from overdose deaths, arrests, parental and prenatal substance use, is increased reliance on the foster care system. In response to concerns about prenatal substance use, some states adopted policies that treat prenatal substance use identified at birth as child abuse or neglect.
