Since the Family First Act passed in 2018, states are denied federal dollars if they place foster kids in cottage group homes. This has made an already crisis situation worse. Now, thousands of kids nationwide are sleeping in hotels (younger than the age of 10), offices, tents, and shipped out of their home states due to a lack of homes. This is particularly bad for kids who suffer from trauma, mental illness, or abuse due to the foster parents not wanting or equipped to deal with these issues. The answer so far, has been to leave kids in unsafe homes, or put them in rental beds (that’s when people rent their beds for $600 a night but do not feed or take the child to school). These kids are constantly moved, don’t get to attend the same school, and have no stability. This makes them highly susceptible to trafficking because no one can keep track of them.<\/p>[\/et_pb_blurb][et_pb_blurb use_icon=”on” font_icon=”||divi||400″ icon_color=”gcid-2801fdad-bff5-4378-89e4-f0c39418615c” icon_placement=”left” image_icon_width=”55px” content_max_width=”80%” _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” header_font_size=”22px” body_font_size=”23px” body_line_height=”1.8em” icon_font_size=”55px” global_colors_info=”{%22gcid-2801fdad-bff5-4378-89e4-f0c39418615c%22:%91%22circle_color%22,%22icon_color%22,%22icon_color%22,%22circle_color%22,%22icon_color%22%93}”]
