Supporting Foster Care Children and Families

This show looks at the Foster Care system in Northern Virginia, the programs available to serve children and to support foster care parents as well as finding permanent families for children and adolescents.

Guests from the Fairfax County Department of Family Services are Kamonya Omatete, Program Manager for the Foster Care and Adoption Program; Emma Marshall, a Community Educator in the Foster Care and Adoption Resource Support Program; and Chauncey Strong (MSW), Supervisor of the Permanency and Life Skills Unit in the Foster Care and Adoption Resource Support Program.

The last segment features Lynn Davis, Operations Manager for Foster Care to Success (formerly Orphan Foundation of America.) This organization provides support for young adults who have aged out of foster care and are attending colleges and universities across the country.
