"Youth involved in the child welfare and juvenile justice system were already in desperate need of safety and security, love and identity. For far too long, these young people have been stripped of their agency and autonomy, leaving them voiceless and confused. Wondering if they will ever be seen again. A state, a judge determines the care of a child, a youth, a young heart, a young soul traumatized yet resilient, only to remain faceless...Their voices are nowhere in the headlines, and nowhere in the national debate."

In honor of National Foster Care Month, anti-trafficking organization Shared Hope International had this article about the foster care system and it's downfalls; Bridge to Success- National Foster Care Month - Shared Hope International

Link at the bottom of the article is another that more specifically addresses that Covid situation, including details from California organizations, from someone who experienced youth homelessness; https://chronicleofsocialchange.org...vulnerable-youth-in-the-crisis/42962Announcer

Please read the short articles, and pray, or do whatever it is you do, to direct your mind towards better ways to help these people.I

Also,Remember to support the people around you who are struggling, and do consider adopting someone from foster care. It's free, and of the US government pays for their health care! Look into it as a way to expand your family and help those you needed most.
