Since 1978 the federal government has implemented a variety of programs to promote the adoption of children from foster care. A key part of these programs has been the use of subsidies to lower the cost of adopting and parenting children who have been in foster care. Although subsidies are a key part of federal policy, there has been little empirical research on the effect of subsidies on adoption rates. This paper uses data from the Adoption and Foster Care Analysis and Reporting System to estimate the impact of subsidy rates on adoption rates. Subsidies to families have a positive and statistically significant effect on adoption rates.
自1978年以来，联邦政府实施了各种计划以促进收养寄养儿童。这些计划的一个关键部分是使用补贴来降低收养和养育曾在寄养机构生活的儿童的成本。尽管补贴是联邦政策的关键部分，但关于补贴对收养率影响的实证研究却很少。本文使用来自收养与寄养分析和报告系统的数据来估计补贴率对收养率的影响。对家庭的补贴对收养率有积极且在统计上显著的影响。
