Foster Care System Failing To Protect Those Who Need It The Most
United States, there are more than 500,000 children living in foster care. Foster care is the temporary placement of children because of abuse, neglect, family problems, or dependency.
A child may be placed because their home is no longer safe, their parents or guardians are no longer able to provide proper care, or the child no longer has a parent or guardian to care for them. The primary goal of foster care is to return the child to its home, if possible.
Note: Some of these kids have been stolen from their parents too. But the article doesn't tell you that.
