In this episode, we explored the structural and human dimensions of the foster care system — the challenges youth face when entering and aging out of care, how trauma and identity shape their experiences, and what support systems (or gaps) exist for foster youth, caregivers, and agencies. We also discussed “what works” approaches: trauma-informed practices, culturally responsive supports, and community-based interventions.
