Welcome to Conversations About Foster Care!
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.
Transitions for kids between homes in the foster care system. Or, it could be from a foster family back to birth family, or from a foster family to a permanent adoptive family - and all the options in between.
Join our very first episode, in which we introduce ourselves (hello!) and tell you who we are and why we are making a podcast. As non-religious foster parents we saw a space in the foster community for us to have an honest conversation about the trauma kids can experience moving homes - and we want to involve every one in the conversation.
Welcome to the table.
We'd love to hear your feedback by emailing us at conversationsaboutfostercare@gmail.com
Thanks and Enjoy!
