A Home for Every Child
Adoptions Together joins NBC4 to highlight children in foster care, Potomac Lifestyle reports.
Currently, there are more than 391,000 children in the U.S. foster care system. Those eligible for adoption wait an average of nearly three years to be placed in a permanent home. “It’s not good for a child to not know each day —who’s my family, where am I going to be, and if I misbehave, am I going to get kicked out?” Adoptions Together founder and CEO Janice Goldwater says. She shares the story of a child’s former school bus driver spotting him on TV and reaching out to her agency. “She said, I always loved that child; he’s a great kid and I had no idea he was in foster care. I’d like to know about him. And I’d like to consider adopting him.”
