Recruiting Families Using Data Act of 2023

Bill 118 HR 3058, also known as the Recruiting Families Using Data Act of 2023, aims to improve the recruitment of foster and adoptive families by utilizing data-driven strategies. The bill focuses on enhancing the collection and analysis of data related to the recruitment of families for children in the foster care system.

One key aspect of the bill is the establishment of a national database that will track and monitor the recruitment efforts of foster and adoptive families. This database will help identify areas where recruitment efforts are lacking and allow for targeted strategies to be implemented to increase the number of available families for children in need.

Additionally, the bill calls for the development of best practices and guidelines for recruiting families, based on the data collected. These best practices will be shared with state and local agencies to help improve their recruitment efforts and ultimately increase the number of placements for children in foster care. Overall, the Recruiting Families Using Data Act of 2023 aims to improve the recruitment of foster and adoptive families by utilizing data-driven strategies and sharing best practices across agencies. By implementing these measures, the bill seeks to ensure that every child in the foster care system has the opportunity to find a loving and stable home.
