Child Day Care Management Program: In the foster care program child day care management program welfare has developed and perfected a variety of methods or types of care and, within the range of available resources, it seeks to "fit" the type of care and method of service or "treatment" to the individual needs of a particular child day care management program or family. For example, family home care, of a particular quality, would usually be seen as the preferred care for an infant during the period of time needed to facilitate his placement for adoption. An agency-operated group home staffed with skilled "counselors" and other specialists, or a highly specialized institution, might be a better choice for a disturbed adolescent who had experienced serious rejection by a mentally ill mother.
In the United States, there are increasing group day care facilities, particularly under programs such as "Head-Start" and "Get Set," which have the objective 'of breaking the cycle of intergenerational poverty. These group day care centers may be called day nurseries, day care centers, child day care management program care centers, or nursery schook Not all nursery schools are true day care centers, but any good day care program for child day care management programren of nursery school age will have an educational component in its program indistinguishable from that of a good nursery school. Because sound early child day care management programhood education is an important feature of a good day nursery as well as of a good nursery school, the distinction between the two kinds of programs tends to blur.
This definition is problem-focused, emphasizing prevention and remedy. It recognizes the value of strengthening a child day care management program's own home where possible. Where this is not possible, a variety of substitute living situations is provided.
child day care management program welfare services are directed to the social problem of deprivation of parental care. As the accompanying chart illustrates, they are designed to help with society's child day care management program-rearing task in three important ways: (1) to substitute for parental care either partially or wholly according to a child day care management program's individual needs; (2) to supplement the care that a child day care management program receives, or to compensate for certain inadequacies or limitations in parental care; and (3) to support or reinforce the ability of parents to meet their child day care management programren's needs.
