Advocacy Groups Call Child Welfare Law Enforcement “National Disgrace”

Advocacy Groups Call Child Welfare Law Enforcement “National Disgrace” - NPQ - Nonprofit Quarterly:

Two advocacy groups have come forward to call the federal government’s efforts to enforce child protection laws a “national disgrace,” once again spotlighting the well-known shortcomings of the national child welfare system.

The Children’s Advocacy Institute at the San Diego University of Law, along with First Star, a charity focused on eliminating child abuse and neglect in the United States, collaborated on a three-year study that culminated in a 110-page report released on Tuesday. The dense and thorough report cites failures by all three federal government branches to adequately provide oversight of the enforcement of welfare laws and also to address potential problems or shortcomings of the laws.

According to the study, none of the of 50 states has met the minimum child welfare standards required by the federal government, such as creating and submitting timely reports of abuse. The study blames both Congress and the courts for failing to provide effective oversight of state agencies that have been shirking these standards, in place to avoid missing critical signs of abuse.
