, Amanie M. Salem, DO, MPH b, Marcia Y. Mallorca, MD, MPH a, Anne B. McBride, MD aRésumé |
The authors disclose that this is a fictional case created by the authors. Julian, a 16-year-old adolescent who entered the juvenile justice system facing armed robbery charges, was 8 years old when he entered the child welfare system. He and his younger sister, Jessica, were placed in protective custody after school staff discovered that they were physically abused and witnessed domestic violence. Jessica further disclosed sexual abuse by the mother’s boyfriend who was subsequently incarcerated. The siblings were placed together in several foster homes until a biological aunt assumed custody for 2 years. Both children struggled with behavioral problems in school and at home and responded to mental health treatment. The mother participated in substance use treatment, and the children reunified with her by the time Julian was 11 years old.
