SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Overview: According to a 2000 Bureau
of Justice Statistics report (Mumola, C.J.
NCJ 182335, 8/30/2000), of the nearly 2
million men and women being held in
state prisons, local jails, and federal
facilities, nearly 1.1 million were
parents, affecting an estimated amount
of 2.3 million children. Over half of
those parents had minor children. This
has a significant effect on children who
are assigned temporary living
arrangements such as foster care or
placement with extended family or
neighbors. Without maintaining positive
connections to a parent, children are
more likely to experience a variety of
adverse effects, including impaired
learning, poverty, and frequent
displacement or instability in their
living situations. Data shows that
children who were residing with their
mothers prior to incarceration were
most likely to be living with
grandmothers (78%) or other kinship or
under foster care arrangements.
Children of male offenders were more
likely living with their biological
mother (90%) and less likely to be in
other kinship or foster care placements.
Over the past two decades, as the
number of incarcerated men and women
has increased, so have the numbers of
prison and jail facilities. It is likely that
the facility in which a man or woman
is housed is far away from family,
community, and other potential
supports. This is more often the rule
with women, given that states may have
only a single facility that houses
women, and they frequently are not
