1 April 30, 2013 The Honorable Beto O Rourke U.S. House of Representatives Washington, DC Dear Congressman O Rourke: We are writing to thank you for your leadership on and continued attention to the needs of America s children, and to express our support for the Foster Children Opportunity Act. As representatives of organizations committed to improving the health and well-being of children and families, we are pleased that the Foster Children Opportunity Act seeks to ensure that abused and neglected immigrant children have an opportunity to obtain the legal immigrant status to which they are entitled prior to aging out of the foster care system. The introduction of the Foster Children Opportunity Act comes at an important time. As our nation s leaders move forward with the important task of reforming the federal immigration system it is critical that they consider the specific needs of children and youth. Children of immigrants currently comprise 1 in 4 of all children in the U.S. and represent the fastest growing segment of the child population. Despite the significant impact of immigration policy on children s lives, children have historically been disregarded and often intentionally excluded in U.S. immigration policy decisions. Even the youngest children have few special protections under current immigration law and their best interests are often considered irrelevant in critical decisions regarding their own or a parent s ability to enter or stay in the United States. Furthermore, complicated laws determining immigrant eligibility for federally funded services have created significant barriers for children in immigrant families. As a result, both children who are immigrants themselves as well as U.S. citizen children with immigrant parents continue to face high rates of family separation, emotional trauma, economic instability, poor educational outcomes, and limited access to critical services and programs. Immigrant children involved in the child welfare system are especially vulnerable and frequently overlooked. These youth are often eligible for special forms of immigration relief, including Special Immigrant Juvenile Status (SIJS) but early identification is critical given that a child can lose SIJS eligibility once the court terminates jurisdiction over the youth. More often than not, court and child welfare officials are unaware of immigration relief options available, leaving these children at risk of deportation at any time and drastically limiting their educational and work opportunities when they age out of the system. Sadly, each year, many undocumented children age out of the child welfare system without the opportunity to obtain legal immigrant status. On exiting the system, they often lose their only chance to gain legal status and leave the foster care system in a state of limbo, lacking the lawful status necessary to succeed in the U.S. They face a daily risk of deportation, are unable to obtain employment authorization, a driver s license, access to benefits and in most states, are not eligible for in-state tuition at state colleges and universities. Child welfare staff, judges, attorneys and other service providers play a critical role in the lives of these young people. It is essential that they are knowledgeable about immigration issues and SIJS in particular, and has access to the training and resources necessary to fully protect all children in its care.
2 The Foster Children Opportunity Act aims to ensure that all children in the foster care system are screened for SIJS and other immigration relief options. The bill provides needed technical assistance to child welfare agencies and resources to train judges, attorneys and other legal workers on this matter. It also clarifies that a state can obtain reimbursement for the foster care costs of a child once the child obtains SIJS status and ensures that children who receive SIJS are exempted from the 5 year ban placed on receiving Federal means-tested public benefits. This Act seeks to protect abused and neglected children by ensuring they have a fighting chance at leading healthy and productive lives when they exit the child welfare system. We are grateful for your leadership in introducing the Foster Children Opportunity Act, and we look forward to working with you to ensure passage of this critical legislation.
