What is ASFA/CAPTA part 2 of 4
By Marilyn Harrison
In part 1 we were quoting G. Miller, who was the former Chairman of the federal Select Committee on Children, Youth, and Families an official at the U.S. Department of Health, Education, and Welfare then reluctently admitted to Miller that the government really, and at that time, had no idea where many of the nation’s 500,000 foster children were living.
Is that not typical? He then went on to admit that they were not even sure what services these children were receiving, if any, or if any efforts were being made to reunite them with their families.
Although this figure too varries from one government entity to another, does anyone have an accurate figure as to how many children are actually in the Foster Care System nationwide? The figure that we are offering you was from a publication many years ago, now that figure has risen to an astounding 870.,000 although the CPS counts 343,000 children in the foster care system. Have we lost close to a half million children then?
