Plain-English Summary

This bill would provide additional federal funding and support services to help keep children safely with their families and reduce the number of kids entering the foster care system. It would likely expand programs that help struggling families address issues like poverty, substance abuse, and housing instability before children need to be removed from their homes. The changes would affect social workers, families at risk of separation, and state child welfare agencies that manage foster care.
