I like to share guests and stories that are uplifting, helpful and inspiring but sometimes a subject is so important that it needs a special focus.
The crisis that’s taking place in the adoption and foster care system is something my guest, Jenell Jones knows all too well. A mom of seven; three bio, two bonus (step child and nephew) and two adopted kids has shown her how broken the system is.
Jenell explains why this is an EVERYBODY PROBLEM because these kids are our future, and their future looks bleak because of repeated traumas, neglect, and abuse. We need to all take a look at what’s going on because the sad truth is that if something doesn’t happen to change the systems, these kids are the future of homelessness, poverty, mental illness, addiction, incarceration, and crime.
We can all play a part in solving this problem by first talking about it and bringing it to light. And when you see a child in crisis, please approach with compassion and curiosity.
