Summary: | This research project studies 100 children in the care of the Children's Service Centre of Montreal, who were moved from one foster home to another within a six months survey period, April 1 to September 30, 1954. It is focused on the frequency and causes of movement. It is an attempt to determine why these children were moved and whether some of the moves could have been prevented. Agency records on the child and foster home were used as the source data. The study opens with a discussion on the literature in child care, which provides a theoretical base for the project. |
