Sec. 12351. Findings and purpose
-STATUTE-
(a) Findings
Congress finds that -
(1) fundamental changes in the demographics and economics of
family life in the United States over the past 20 years have had
a profound effect on children and their parents;
(2) since 1966, the number of women working outside the home
has increased by 92 percent and the number of two earner families
has increased by over 50 percent;
(3) 61 percent of the children born today will live in a
single-parent family before reaching the age of 20, with one out
of every three single female heads of households living on income
below the Federal poverty level;
(4) one out of every four children under the age of 6 in the
United States currently lives below the Federal poverty level;
(5) over the past 10 years, parents have increasingly come
together with other parents to organize family resource and
support programs that promote healthy child development and
increase parental competency, particularly families at risk; and
(6) Federal investment in promoting the development of family
resource and support programs will reap long-term benefits for
individual families and the nation as a whole.
(b) Purpose
It is the purpose of this part (!1) to -
(1) stimulate the development and expansion of family resource
and support programs that are prevention oriented;
(2) encourage early intervention of such programs with families
to ameliorate problem situations before such situations become
crises; and
(3) assist parents in enhancing their children's development to
ensure that their children enter school prepared and ready to
learn.

As used in this part, the term "family resource and support

will lead to the healthy and positive personal development of
parents and children through -

assist parents in improving their capacities to be supportive and
nurturing parents;

(3) the creation of supportive networks to enhance the
childrearing capacity of parents and assist in compensating for
the increased social isolation and vulnerability of families.

Sec. 12371. Findings
-STATUTE-
(a) Findings
The Congress finds that -
(1) children and youth are inherently our most valuable
resource and their welfare, protection, healthy development, and
positive role in society are essential to the Nation;
(2) children and youth deserve love, respect, and guidance, as
well as good health, shelter, food, education, productive work,
and preparation for responsible participation in community life;
(3) an increasing opportunity for children and youth to
participate in the decisions that affect their lives is
essential;
(4) the family is the primary caregiver and the source of
social learning which must be supported and strengthened, but
when families are unable to ensure the satisfaction of the needs
of children and youth, it is society's responsibility to assist
them;
(5) at a minimum, all children and youth need and deserve
access to -
(A) the best possible physical and mental health;
(B) adequate and safe physical shelter;
(C) the highest quality of educational opportunity;
(D) effective training, apprenticeships, opportunities for
community service, and productive employment;
(E) the widest range of civic, cultural, and recreational
activities which recognize young Americans as resources and
promote self-esteem and a stake in their communities;
(F) comprehensive community services which are efficient,
coordinated, and readily available; and
(G) genuine participation in decisions concerning the
planning and managing of their lives; and
(6) there is a great need for a comprehensive national policy
with respect to young individuals, designed to engage Federal,
State, and local government agencies, youth organizations, and
other voluntary organizations.
(b) Statement of policy
It is the policy of the Congress that the Federal Government
should work jointly with the States and their citizens to develop
recommendations and plans for action to meet the challenge and
needs of young individuals.
