SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

This Act may be cited as the ‘Safe Babies Act of 2009’.CommentsClose CommentsPermalink

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

Congress finds as follows:CommentsClose CommentsPermalink





(1) Children 3 years of age and younger have the highest rates of victimization. Children under the age of 1 are nearly twice as likely as all other children to become victims of child maltreatment while children ages 1 through 3 have the next highest rate of victimization. Children ages 3 and younger are also twice as likely to be placed in foster care as children of any other age. Once placed in foster care, children 3 years of age and younger are more likely than older children to be abused and neglected, and they tend to stay in foster care longer than older children.CommentsClose CommentsPermalink





(2) Infants and toddlers are the most vulnerable to the effects of maltreatment. Research shows that young children who have experienced physical abuse have lower social competence, show less empathy for others, and have difficulty recognizing others’ emotions. They are also more likely than children who have not been maltreated to have deficits in IQ scores, language ability, and school performance.CommentsClose CommentsPermalink





(3) Research shows that the human brain increases in weight from 26 percent of its adult weight at birth to 74 percent by the age of 3. During those early years, the brain is developing most of its basic capacity, which substantially predicts future achievement or failure. Therefore, infants and toddlers who have been maltreated and placed in foster care are spending the most critical developmental period in situations that may be detrimental to healthy growth and development.CommentsClose CommentsPermalink





(4) Substance abuse is a factor in as many as 67 percent of child maltreatment cases. Every year, more than 2.6 million babies are born to mothers who drank alcohol during pregnancy and 40,000 of those babies are born displaying identifiable birth defects; thousands more suffer ill effects that are not readily apparent. More than 2 million children under 6 live with one or more alcoholic parents. Some 460,000 babies are exposed to illegal drugs in utero each year. Poly drug use is the rule rather than the exception, and users typically ingest alcohol, illegal, and prescription drugs. Thus, while research has identified the effects of prenatal alcohol exposure, it is difficult to ascertain the effects of prenatal exposure to other specific substances (i.e., methamphetamines, cocaine, and other illegal drugs). Alcohol is the only mood altering substance that is used in isolation from others and the effects have been well documented through the literature on fetal alcohol spectrum disorders. Maternal substance abuse during pregnancy affects the health of the baby at birth and in the months and years that follow. It contributes to preterm birth, low birth weight, developmental delays and disabilities. Active substance abuse by parents after birth can create a risk of imminent harm to a child.CommentsClose CommentsPermalink





(5) Children under the age of 4 account for 78 percent of child fatalities, and children under the age of 1 account for 44 percent of such fatalities.CommentsClose CommentsPermalink





(6) Child welfare systems are not meeting the needs of the children who rely on public intervention to protect them. According to the first round of Child and Family Services Reviews completed by the Administration for Children and Families, no State had achieved all of the specified outcomes on the Child and Family Services Review indicators, and all of the States failed to meet the outcome related to the provision of physical and mental health services to children in foster care.CommentsClose CommentsPermalink





(7) Judges can be powerful catalysts for change in the way communities address the needs of maltreated infants and toddlers. A project in the Juvenile Court of the Fifth Judicial District of Iowa has combined the leadership of a family court judge with expertise in early childhood development. Such collaboration is currently underway in other local jurisdictions across the country, with many more seeking to create similar projects. These projects are working to ensure that mental health and parenting intervention services are provided for parents and children together.CommentsClose CommentsPermalink
