About this episode

May is National Foster Care Awareness Month! It's a great time to shed a little light and pour a lot of love onto kids in foster care, and the amazing people who support them, like foster parents, advocates, mentors and volunteers. Jennifer Perry of Children's Action Network and FosterMore joins me today to talk about the work her organizations do, and we also talk about what YOU and I can do to make these children's lives and futures a little brighter. So glad you'll be joining us! ~ Delilah
