Arkansas Advocates March 2008 Report

Everyone needs the support and love of a family, regardless of

age. Throughout our lives, we depend on our families in both good

times and bad. They help us through the bad times such as illness or

loss of a job, and they help us celebrate the good times such as

birthdays and graduations. Unfortunately, over 200 Arkansas children

left foster care last year without ever finding that support. These

children turned 18 and “aged out” of the child welfare system. The

state is no longer responsible for their care. At this point, they have

to tackle life on their own.     Read the entire story here.....
