Married couple, Marika & Kurt chat about the many perspectives in foster care and the ways we can all do better by our kids
In our first season, we focus on an oft overlooked part of the US Foster Care system - Transitions.
Today we talk to a fellow foster parent - Liz -who has been a foster parent for several children. She's had some very traumatic experiences, but has always fought for the best interests of the kids in her care. She is now an advocate for better transition practices in the foster care system.
Beware: This episode mentions the graphic traumatic experiences of children, which some listeners may find triggering or traumatic.
Our podcast features music by Chris Haugen "Tupelo Train"
