The foster care system in South Carolina is trying to save nearly 5,000 children but is 1,000 families short. That's just the beginning of the problems.
For this first podcast on my blog, Featuring Fern, I wanted to talk about a topic dear to my heart - the foster care system and its challenges.
I have interviewed six people, asking their takes on a system trying to do so much with so little.
As a disclaimer, this podcast does talk about abuse and trauma, so listener discretion is advised.
Please keep an open mind and realize there is no one person to blame in this system that has been broken for a long time.
