The Tufts Clinical and Translational Science Institute (CTSI) today 
issued a landmark report from a multi-state study on psychotropic 
medication oversight in foster care. Led by Laurel K. Leslie, MD, MPH 
at Tufts CTSI, Christopher Bellonci, MD at Tufts Medical Center and 
Justeen Hyde, PhD at Cambridge Health Alliance, the study examined 
state policies and practices in 47 states, including Massachusetts, 
and the District of Columbia regarding the use of medication for 
treating behavioral and mental health problems in foster care 
children and adolescents ages 2 to 21 years.
