Most children enter foster care because of abuse or neglect by their parents (U.S. Department of Health and Human services, Administration for Children, Youth & Families, Children's Bureau, 2008). The trauma experienced by children who have been neglected or abused can lead to a variety of developmental problems, such as learning disabilities or behavioral and emotional disorders (Berrick, Needell, Barth, & Johnson-Reid, 1998; Casey Family Programs, 2003; Harden, 2004). Additional trauma is experienced when children are taken away from their birth families, when they are separated from siblings, or when they are moved from one foster care placement to another (Folman, 1998).
