Does the U.S. still use "orphanages"?

Jennifer Perry (Executive Director, Children's Action Network) gives expert video advice on: Under what circumstances does a child become "custody of the state"?; Are foster parents the same as adoptive parents?; What happens to children who aren't adopted? and more...

There has been a move periodically to try and reinstate orphanages, but the determination was made a number of years ago that institutional care was not the best care for a child. Care in something that approximates a family setting is much more beneficial to the well being of a child. Hence, that is the reason that foster care and foster families arose and you don't see orphanages any more.
