Foster mom says library policy prohibiting visits between foster kids and birth parents discriminatory

For many years, Abbey Clegg would take the children she fostered to the Manchester Public Library to meet with their birth mothers.

It is a quiet and safe place and one where birth mother and child could bond over the love of reading.

All that changed, however, last December when the Division of Children, Youth and Families (DCYF) sent foster parents an email informing them that they could no longer have supervised visits at the library.
