This report compares estimates of the number of incarcerated parents and their children under the age of 18, by gender, age, race, and Hispanic origin in state and federal prisons in 1991, 1997, 1999, 2004, and 2007. It presents the total number of children who were minors at some time during their parent's incarceration. The report describes selected background characteristics of parents in prisons, including marital status, citizenship, education, offense type, criminal history, employment, prior experiences of homelessness, drug and alcohol involvement, mental health, and physical and sexual abuse. It provides family background of inmate parents including household makeup, public assistance received by household, drug and alcohol use, and incarceration of family members. It includes information on the children's daily care, financial support, current caregivers, and frequency and type of contact with incarcerated parents. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eHighlights include the following: \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe nation's prisons held approximately 744,200 fathers and 65,600 mothers at midyear 2007.\u003cbr\u003eParents held in the nation's prisons-52% of state inmates and 63% of federal inmates-reported having an estimated 1,706,600 minor children, accounting for 2.3% of the U.S. resident population under age 18.\u003cbr\u003eGrowth in the number of parents held in state and federal prisons was outpaced by the growth in the nation's prison population between 1991 and midyear 2007\u003cp\u003eThis work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
