This bill updates federal rules for states that receive funding for foster care transition programs. Those states would be required to tell expectant and parenting young people who were in foster care about home-visiting services. States could also use that funding to provide specialized case management and resource coordination for these young parents.
This affects states that receive federal funding for foster care transition programs. Young people who were in foster care and are now pregnant or raising children would be directly impacted.
Without this requirement, states were not obligated to connect parenting foster youth with home-visiting services. These changes take effect one year after the bill becomes law and apply to states whose program plans are approved by the federal government after that date.
