US: Don’t Make Our Most Vulnerable Children Wait Longer! (Opinion)

US: Don’t Make Our Most Vulnerable Children Wait Longer! (Opinion)
Huffington Post – July 12, 2016
In an important show of bipartisanship, Congress is on the cusp of an historic step to help many of the most vulnerable children in our nation who are abused and neglected and at risk of entering foster care and lingering in group care. The U.S. House of Representatives passed the Family First Prevention Services Act (H.R. 5456) on June 21st to help keep these children safely with their families and out of foster care. I hope the Senate will do the same this week before it leaves for summer recess and not keep vulnerable children waiting and waiting longer.
