Topic: This paper describes an intervention targeting states that list a parental mental illness/disability as an "aggravated circumstance" under the Adoption and Safe Families Act of 1997 (ASFA), resulting in reasonable efforts not required to reunify a family.
Purpose: This paper delineates the results from our review of ASFA state statutes, the development of a model ASFA statute, and strategies to educate legislators and the public about the impact of discrimination that parents with mental illnesses encounter because of ASFA legislation with the intent of modifying state ASFA legislation.
Sources Used: The following sources were used for this educational initiative: a literature review and a review of ASFA state statutes.
Conclusions: Adoption of the model ASFA state statute is simply a first step in an effort to end the discrimination that parents with psychiatric disabilities face; additional efforts are also noted.

Article Synopsis
- The ASFA Attending Physician Subcommittee reviewed 2023 apheresis literature and selected the top 10 seminal articles in the field.
- They focused on four main topics: donor apheresis, therapeutic apheresis, education, and cellular therapy, using PubMed and OVID for research.
- The chosen articles met key criteria such as novel findings, practice-changing results, and relevance to current clinical practice, while excluding case reports, reviews, and meta-analyses.
Improved Syntheses of an Arseno-Fatty Acid (As-FA 362) and an Arseno-Hydrocarbon (As-HC 444).

Robust and reliable synthetic methods have been developed for the preparation of an arseno-fatty acid (As-FA362) and an arseno-hydrocarbon (As-HC444). An improved route to access the starting materials necessary for the new synthetic routes is also disclosed. With these improvements, an increased accessibility to arsenic-containing compounds is anticipated, which may be deployed as standards required for the development of quantitative methods in biological matrices.

Residential substance use disorder (SUD) treatment programs are challenged by the differing values of the problem-solving court (PSC) and child welfare (CW) systems, along with communication barriers between staff. This study aimed to understand, from the viewpoints of SUD treatment providers, how divergent values and communication barriers adversely affect women's residential SUD treatment. We conducted qualitative semistructured interviews with 18 SUD treatment clinicians and six directors from four women's residential SUD treatment programs.
