foster care settings;
``(2) most children in foster care are victims of child
abuse or neglect by their biological parents and their entry
into foster care brought them the additional trauma of
separation from their homes and often their communities;
``(3) on average, children entering foster care have more
physical and mental health needs than do children in the
general population, and some require intensive services because
the children entering foster care--
``(A) were born to mothers who did not receive

disabilities;
``(C) were born addicted to alcohol or other drugs;

a part of, their racial or ethnic status, their medical
condition, or any physical, mental or emotional disability they
may have, are in need of placement with permanent, loving,
adoptive families;
``(5)(A) States have made important strides in increasing
the number of children who are placed in permanent homes with
adoptive parents and in reducing the length of time children
wait for such a placement; and

institutions or foster homes solely because of legal and other
barriers to such a placement;

child welfare agency involvement during fiscal year 2009 were
African-American; and

the last day of fiscal year 2009 were African-American;
``(7) adoption may be the best alternative for assuring the
healthy development of children placed in foster care;
``(8) there are qualified persons seeking to adopt such
children who are unable to do so because of barriers to their
placement and adoption; and
``(9) in order both to enhance the stability of and love in
the home environments of such children and to avoid wasteful
expenditures of public funds, such children--
``(A) should not have medically indicated treatment
withheld from them; or
``(B) be maintained in foster care or institutions
when adoption is appropriate and families can be found
for such children.''; and
