  3. 5 Myths Myth #1: Children of incarcerated parents are six times more likely than the average child to go to prison themselves

  6. 5 Myths • Almost half of all incarcerated parents lived with their children prior to their arrest • 64% of mothers • 47% of fathers • Mothers are a fast-growing population: From 1991-2007, the number of children with a mother in prison increased by 131%

  7. 5 Myths Myth #3 Few children in foster care have an incarcerated parent

  8. 5 Myths • We don’t know how many children in foster care have an incarcerated parent • Federal data suggests that 8% of children in foster care have an incarcerated parent • This data measures incarceration at time of entry into foster care only • This data excludes children who enter foster care before or after the parent enters jail • This data excludes all children who did not live with their incarcerated parent at the time of removal

  9. 5 Myths Myth #4 Incarcerated Parents are Dangerous People
