US: Former Long Beach foster child interns for Kamala Harris, writes foster care policy paper
Press-Telegram – August 18, 2017
The 29-year-old Long Beach woman served as an intern for Sen. Kamala Harris this summer, and as part of that work, has written a portion of a 74-page policy paper advocating for a national standard for quality of services for foster youth. The paper, penned by a dozen former foster youth across the country, was recently presented to members of Congress, staff and child welfare advocates.
