Report: High rate of Idaho American Indian children in foster care
Coeur d’Alene, Idaho (AP)
American Indians represent 1 percent of Idaho’s child population but make up 6.6 percent of children in the state’s foster care system, two child advocacy groups say. The National Indian Child Welfare Association, and Kids Are Waiting, released the report during late November. To help reduce the number of American Indian children in foster care, the groups said, tribes should have direct access to child welfare funding made available by the federal government. |
