註釋Our task was to help the parents achieve improved parental capabilities and to facilitate the children's mastery of appropriate developmental achievements for their ages . We attempted to achieve this by means of supporting small steps on the road to independence. For such a broad undertaking , the actual length of client contact (11⁄2 to 3 years) was relatively short. The project ran a little over 5 years , but the first year was devoted to planning and the last few months, to transition to a different program. We entered each family situation without any preconceived idea of placement. Our policy was to give the family an opportunity to see what improvement could be made with treatment. The services of the Center made it possible to provide care and protection to the children , thus reducing the need to rush into placement. During active contact with these families , only 8 situations called for placement -- 27 out of 162 children and involving 11 out of 60 parents. The children who were able to stay at home all made substantial progress in social and cognitive development. Improvement in parental functioning, however, came much more slowly , ranging from substantial to minimal.
