President Signs Key Child Welfare Legislation into Law
On September 30, President Obama president signed into law the Child and Family Services Improvement and Innovation Act that reauthorizes two important child welfare programs – Promoting Safe and Stable Families (PSSF) and the Stephanie Tubbs Jones Child Welfare Services (STJCWS) for 5 years. The law also renews waiver authority so states can test various approaches to serving children at risk of abuse or neglect and establishes child welfare data standards so states can better communicate between social service programs.
