"You can’t educate or advocate for your rights if you don’t know what they are," says Rosemary Maher, a former foster parent and current law student at the University of St. Thomas. Rosemary played a pivotal role in launching Minnesota’s Foster Youth Bill of Rights, a critical step toward stronger protections for foster youth. In a compelling article from The Imprint News, the challenges and triumphs in drafting this Foster Youth Bill of Rights are brought to light. --> Angela Anderson: “We want to create a document that empowers and provides protections for youth in care.” --> Jason Johnson: “Ensuring that foster youth have their voices heard is crucial.” For a deeper dive into this initiative, check out the full article. Let’s advocate for a more supportive environment for all foster youth. 🔗 Read the full story: https://bit.ly/3Sy8vn0 #HeartsToHomes #FosterYouth #FosterCare #FosterRights
