摘要：

While it is well-established that parents with disabilities and their families are over-represented in the child welfare system, no known research has described the parents,' child welfare professionals,' and attorneys' perspectives on the system's capacity to support them or their recommendations for improvement. This qualitative phenomenological study involved semi-structured interviews with 15 disabled parents, 15 child welfare professionals, and 15 parent attorneys. Respondents agreed that the child welfare system lacks expertise on disability and adequate services for disabled parents, and holds negative attitudes about them. Respondents recommended robust training for professionals on parents with disabilities, and individually-tailored services for disabled parents.
