The author describes the results of a quasi-experimental study of the effects of interorganizational services coordination teams on the quality and outcomes of services to children in state custody. The findings suggest that services coordination teams improve access to services and enhance service outcomes. Children served by services coordination teams were more likely to be placed in less restrictive residential settings, more like to be placed in settings appropriate to their levels of psycho-social functioning, and more likely to receive needed services from the state's mental health system. Moreover, those children with the most serious externalizing problem (i.e., aggressive, antisocial) behavior made more progress when served by services coordination teams.
作者描述了一项准实验研究的结果,该研究探讨了组织间服务协调团队对处于国家监护下儿童的服务质量和结果的影响。研究结果表明,服务协调团队改善了服务获取情况并提升了服务效果。由服务协调团队提供服务的儿童更有可能被安置在限制较少的居住环境中,更有可能被安置在与其心理社会功能水平相适应的环境中,并且更有可能从该州的心理健康系统获得所需服务。此外,那些具有最严重外化问题(即攻击性、反社会)行为的儿童在接受服务协调团队的服务时取得了更大的进步。
