I know that I am lucky – not only to have been given the opportunity to raise three wonderful children, but also to have been raised in a loving home by my mother, alongside my siblings.
Unfortunately, too many children do not have that opportunity, and instead grow up in the foster care system. As I shared in my previous blog post, The Power of Giving Back, this fact, and many of the tragic circumstances that surround it, is what inspired me to become a Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) for children in foster care.
