Human-induced climate change hurts people. Environmental burdens impact a person's ability to live freely, in good health, and with loved ones.

(DE)FUNDING FAMILY SEPARATIONS |
27 NYU Journal of Legislation and Public Policy 605 (2024-2025) |
Federal foster care funding exists in tension with foundational family law principles. The law protects family integrity: the state may only separate parents and children in extreme cases, and, when it does, the state must work to reunify families. Yet the federal funding system directs billions of federal dollars to support CPS agencies and pay... |
