Critical Issues in Residential Care for Young Mothers and Infants: An Overview of Model Licensing Rules.

Murray, Louise

Child Welfare, v71 n2 p157-64 Mar-Apr 1992

Describes model licensing proposals for residential services for pregnant and parenting adolescents. Developed from a federally funded project, these proposals highlight licensing rules in four areas: (1) staff and training; (2) staff-client ratio; (3) program and health requirements; and (4) services to fathers. The rules represent baseline requirements below which no program may operate. (GLR)
