Wrapping Around Foster Families with Katie Welch

Did you know that half of foster parents quit within the first year?

Katie Welch is trying to change that reality in Kansas City through Foster Light - a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting foster families.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

- Why Katie started Foster Light

- The importance of “wraparound services” for foster families

- Staggering statistics on foster youth

- Easy ways for the community to be part of the solution

Katie encourages us that making a difference in foster care takes a community, and everyone can play a part.
