Which pathway to permanency focuses on bringing the family back together after separation?

  1. Concurrent planning

  2. Long-term foster care

  3. Child guardianship

  4. Family isolation

The correct answer is: Long-term foster care

The correct answer is B, long-term foster care, because this pathway aims to reunite the family after a temporary separation. Long-term foster care is typically viewed as a temporary solution while efforts are made to reunify the family. This option stands out as the most relevant choice compared to the other options provided. Option A, concurrent planning, involves simultaneously working towards reunification while also exploring alternative permanency options in case reunification is not successful. Option C, child guardianship, refers to a legal relationship where a guardian cares for the child but does not involve reunifying the child with the birth family. Option D, family isolation, is not a recognized pathway in child welfare practice.
