Reflections: Stories of Foster Care
Personal storytelling is a powerful way to shape public opinion and motivate and inspire individuals to act. It can also help child welfare professionals and others understand the challenges associated with foster care and identify new ways to approach their work with children, youth, and families.
Read this year's stories to hear tips from youth, parents, foster parents, caseworkers, and other individuals with direct, firsthand experience with the child welfare system on how to best engage children and youth, help them develop lifelong connections and supports, and help them build a strong foundation that will unlock possibilities for future success.
