The Fingerprinting Infrastructure Modernization for Child Welfare program supports state and tribal child welfare agencies in upgrading their fingerprinting and background check systems to speed up the approval of caregivers and expeditesafe placements for children. Funding is directed toward deploying mobile fingerprinting units and office-based Live Scan stations to integrate fingerprint collection directly into existing child welfare processes like home visits and licensing workflows. This modernization aims to eliminate systemic delays that have historically slowed caregiver approvals, reducing administrative burdens while ensuring compliance with federal standards. The initiative is designed to deliver measurable improvements in background check processing times, increase the number of qualified caregivers available for placement, and enhance the overall capacity of agencies to place children in stable, nurturing homes more quickly. These efforts align with the Administration for Children and Families’ A Home for Every Child initiative, strengthening the broader child welfare system by expanding access to kinship, foster, and adoptive families and promoting placement stability through more efficient, integrated infrastructure. The program is administered by the Department of Health and Human Services through the Administration for Children and Families, with inquiries directed to Brian Lerner at cb@grantreview.org.

Full Description

Show more

This program supports state and tribal child welfare agencies in modernizing fingerprinting and background check infrastructure to accelerate the safe placement of children into family homes. By investing in mobile fingerprinting and office-based Live Scan stations, the initiative addresses critical delays that prevent timely caregiver approval and placement.

Funded activities focus on expanding access to fingerprinting services while integrating fingerprint collection into existing child welfare workflows such as home visits and office-based licensing processes. In parallel, the program supports system modernization efforts that reduce or eliminate barriers in background check processing. These improvements are designed to enhance efficiency, ensure compliance with federal requirements, and reduce administrative burden.

The expected measurable outcomes include significantly reduced turnaround times for fingerprint-based background checks, increased availability and accessibility of qualified caregivers, and improved capacity for agencies to place children more quickly in safe, stable, and nurturing homes. This program supports the ACF's A Home for Every Child initiative by aligning infrastructure investments with operational needs, advancing broader efforts to strengthen child welfare systems, increasing placement stability, and expanding the pool of approved kinship, foster, and adoptive families.
