In this in-depth conversation, CityServe’s vice president of children & youth initiatives Lynn Johnson recounts her journey from a pardon and parole officer to being tapped for a position in the Department of Health and Human Services under the Trump administration. 

Hear her describe in detail the state of the foster care system in America, and her firmly-held belief that real change can happen when government, churches, non-profits, and the business community work together for kids in need. 

Johnson is the former Assistant Secretary, Administration for Children and Families for the United States Department of Health and Human Services, and has spent most of her career advocating for the underserved, the homeless, the incarcerated, and most recently children and youth.
