Leo Ages Out: What One Case Shows About Holes in the System
On this week’s podcast we discuss testing universal basic income for youth aging out of foster care, a Minnesota law aimed at addressing race disproportionality, and the new head of the U.S. Children’s Bureau.
Lori Ross, the founder of FosterAdopt Connect, joins us to talk about the case of a high-needs youth who was almost pushed out of Missouri foster care onto the streets with no help, and the many policy implications that young man’s story carries.
