The homes we need: a foster child's story

A 16 year-old writes about her uneven, sometimes abusive, foster families. By telling their stories, foster children hope to have a say in the direction of the system they grow up in. "I felt like a burden to society... This foster mother brought up my worst fears: that I was alone in the world, unwanted and unloved." Read her first-person account on Redwood Voice.foster
