On April 22, 2024, the Children’s Bureau published the annual report to Congress detailing Title IV-B spending. This report to Congress provides national totals of planned spending by service category for the Stephanie Tubbs Jones Child Welfare Services program and planned and actual spending by service category for the Promoting Safe and Stable Families program.
The report includes an overview report to Congress that outlines the national trends, as well as attachments that break down the spending by state and program. This report is useful as advocates continue to ask Congress to reauthorize the Title IV-B program at significantly higher funding levels than currently provided.
