Book Description
This report discusses the reauthorization of the Promoting Safe and Stable Families Amendments of 2001. The new law maintains the FY2001 mandatory funding level, authorizes additional discretionary funding, and grants new program authority to provide mentoring services for children of prisoners. In addition, the enacted legislation allows states to use Promoting Safe and Stable Families funds for infant "safe haven" programs, provides for reallocation of unused program funds, clarifies language defining family support programs, and gives more explicit instructions to the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) regarding use of funds set aside for research, evaluation and technical assistance.

Book Description
The report describes the authorization of funding for the Promoting Safe and Stable Families program (first created in 1993 under a different name) that has expired in the end of FY2001; thus, the 107th Congress acted to reauthorize this program and make some program changes (H.R. 2873, P.L. 107-133). P.L. 107-133 expands the definition of family preservation services under the Promoting Safe and Stable Families Program to include infant safe haven programs; clarifies the meaning of family support to include services that “strengthen parental relationships and promote healthy marriages”; provides for reallocation of unused program funds; and states that, out of any discretionary funds appropriated for the Safe and Stable Families Program, 3.3% will be added to the existing $10 million setaside for Court Improvement Grants; 3.3% will be added to the existing $6 million reservation for evaluation, technical assistance, research and training; and 2% will be added to the existing set-aside for Indian tribes (1% of mandatory funds).

Book Description
Millions of children around the world continue to be adversely impacted when they suffer the loss of a mother or father due to incarceration. Nothing is more powerful than being up close and personal with children of the incarcerated who share their real-life stories in this poignant and insightful book. Their first-hand accounts help the reader to put a face to the numbers and see life from their vantage point. Judges, social workers, prison superintendents, corrections department administrators, formerly incarcerated fathers, incarcerated mothers and fathers, and caregivers, including mothers and grandmothers, also share eye-opening stories. This powerful book provides an opportunity to learn about international programs, as well as programs in the US, that are making a difference in the lives of these children and to learn about policies and best practices for engaging with children of the incarcerated, their parents, and caregivers.
