Adoption & Safe Families Act (ASFA)

A child's sense of time is different from an adult's...

In 1997, Congress made major changes to the federal child abuse and neglect law. These changes became the Adoption and Safe Families Act (ASFA). ASFA focuses on the health and safety of a child. Oregon law already supported that main goal.
