What is the goal of the Adoption and Safe Families Act (ASFA)?

To ensure child safety in scientific research
To place a child quickly in proximity to their parents
To provide financial support to adoptive parents
To prevent the abuse of adopted children

The correct answer is: To place a child quickly in proximity to their parents

The goal of the Adoption and Safe Families Act (ASFA) is to place a child into a permanent home quickly, preferably with biological family members or adoptive parents. This law was created because research has shown that children who spend long periods of time in the foster care system can suffer from negative effects on their development and well-being. Option A is incorrect because the ASFA is not focused on scientific research, but rather on the well-being of children in the foster care system. Option C is incorrect because the ASFA does not provide financial support to adoptive parents, but rather aims to find a permanent home quickly for the child. Option D is incorrect because the ASFA is not specifically focused on preventing abuse, but rather on finding a permanent and safe home for the child.
