This is a report on a forum held on June 3, 2010, co-sponsored by The Bronx Health Link and National Advocates for Pregnant Women. The event featured experts who addressed what happens to children who remain in the care of mothers who used drugs during pregnancy and/or continue to be involved with drug use. The program featured researchers and health practitioners in this field, as well as a parent with direct experience, who helped participants distinguish myth from fact, evidence-based information from media hype and provided meaningful tools for improved advocacy, representation, care and treatment.
