Members of Congress Host Child Welfare Summit | The Children's Monitor:
Yesterday Representatives Danny Davis (D-IL), Eddie Bernice Johnson (D-TX), and Karen Bass (D-CA) hosted a summit on child welfare at the CapitolVisitorsCenterin WashingtonDC. The summit, Increasing Permanency for African American Children Involved in the Child Welfare System, addressed issues affecting children of color in the child welfare system, and in particular African American children being over-represented compared to their representation in the general child population.
in a system that makes justice expensive you can assume the reason so many children of minority ethnicity in foster care and looking for permenency is the result of financial dispairity...heck Im white,employed with a good company for more than a decade (fulltime)with a wife who is educated and full time employed and WE couldnt afford the juvenile systems price for fare,honest and unbiased treatment
ReplyDeleteIf you care to do a little research, you will find that the majority of children stolen in NH are white. In fact caseworker's are known to tell Mother's not to tell anyone their child is biracial, when the child is a newborn and look's white.
