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 FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: E:\FR\FM\03JYN1.SGM 03JYN1
