US: Bipartisan House, Senate Leaders Announce Proposed Child Welfare Legislation (Press release)
U.S. Senator Ron Wyden – June 10, 2016
“This bill has the potential to improve the lives of millions of children, parents and kin caregivers. While key provisions were not included that I will continue to push for, I am proud to have worked with my bipartisan colleagues on this proposal to provide help for families before they get to a point where they have to be ripped apart”? Wyden said. “The Family First Prevention Services Act takes a pro-family, pro-child and evidence-based preventative approach to help give children what they deserve — the best chance at living in a safe and nurturing home.” Also: Congress eyes $1 billion to aid at-risk families: http://www.philly.com/philly/wires/reuters/news/report/20160610_Reuters_L1N1921LH_Congress_eyes__1_billion_to_aid_at_risk_families.html
