DescIn 2020, Childrens Rights continued to effect transformational change for Americas most vulnerable children, managing the largest docket in our history during a year of tremendous challenge due to COVID-19:Within weeks of the advent of COVID-19 Childrens Rights responded to the impact of the crisis on children in state care, partnering with other advocates, nonprofits, and government officials. States adopted our recommended guidelines to make extended foster care services available for older youth at risk of homelessness and hunger. As more juveniles in group settings tested positive for the virus, we spearheaded a national movement to release youth from of all detention facilities, jails, and foster care group homes and urged governments to support older foster youth by stopping youth from aging out.Childrens Rights was awarded a grant to study and recommend new policies, funding opportunities, legislative reforms, and possible legal strategies for ending practices that reinforce structural racism in child welfare systems. The same grant funded a separate project to encourage states to rethink and end the continued inappropriate placement of children in congregate care in the wake of long known harms to youth who are unnecessarily institutionalized, the COVID-19 public health crisis, and a national call to end systemic racism in government systems. Both reports were published in 2021. LGBTQ+ children are over-represented in foster care, where they are more likely to experience discrimination, abuse and neglect. Childrens Rights advocated for their rights during a year when COVID-19 put them at even greater risk, while federal and state legal actions threatened to undermine their interests. Childrens Rights published a report highlighting how the pandemic is harming LGBTQ+ youth in child welfare and outlining what can be done to keep them safe. We filed a legal brief urging the U.S. Supreme Court to uphold non-discrimination child welfare policies, issued numerous statements decrying so-called religious freedom bills that would deny same-sex couples the right to foster or adopt, and joined multiple calls to action to protect transgender health rights.In an extraordinary victory for children in Iowa, a federal judge ruled in a case brought by Childrens Rights that a boys detention center was not providing sufficient mental health care services to traumatized children and using solitary confinement and the wrap, a 14-point restraint, as a means of punishment in violation of their constitutional rights. In the decision the judge wrote that the States action in allowing the use of the illegal wrap shocks the conscience and that by using it the School tortures its students. A case brought by Childrens Rights in Kansas on behalf of 7,000 children in foster care resulted in an settlement plan to transform an overburdened, mismanaged and dangerous foster care system that for years has victimized and traumatized the children it is supposed to protect. The settlement requires a broad range of structural changes to dramatically improve housing stability and mental health supports for children. Kansas must entirely end the use of offices or hotels to house youth, as well as the practice of night-to-night placements, and must develop a better system to provide crisis intervention. A settlement agreement in a federal class action lawsuit filed on behalf of the more than 13,000 children in Arizonas state foster care system will require the state to improve access to health care services, including mental health care, monitor and address caseloads of case managers, and prioritize placing children in family homes rather than institutions. The agreement is a major step toward ensuring that children who are in the states custody can live in their home communities, stay in the same schools and live with their brothers and sisters. A federal judge in Georgia granted preliminary approval for a settlement in a lawsuit brought by Childrens Rights against the DeKalb County Jail on behalf of detained youth with disabilities who were being denied their legal right to special education services. Jail inmates are more than four times as likely as the non-incarcerated population to report having a disability, while detained youth are disproportionately Black. Research shows that when incarcerated people participate in any kind of education, their chances of returning to detention may drop by as much as 43%.Childrens Rights filed a class action lawsuit in Ohio alleging that the state is violating federal law, irreparably harming children and putting an unfair financial strain on vulnerable families. The suit argues that foster children cared for by relatives are being unlawfully denied foster care maintenance payments despite the fact that child welfare law and policy prioritize placing children with approved grandparents, relatives, or close family friends. Placing children with relatives maintains critical family connections, helps children heal from trauma and has been shown to have the best long-term outcomes for the wellbeing of children. In Ohio, approximately 4,500 foster children are living with relative foster parents, a number that has been growing rapidly in the state.Desc
