Beyond the Foster Care System

“In this richly detailed exploration of the foster care system, Krebs and Pitcoff argue that the existing system sets teens up to fail by inadequately preparing them for adult life. They contend that the primary goal of foster care for teenagers should be preparation for a fully productive adult life, and that current policies and practice are misguided.”

This book is a powerful tool to help youths in foster care move to fully engaged lives in our society.
