This May, during National Foster Care Month, we are hosting a Brooklyn-based virtual film tour. We will be screening select films from our award-winning documentary film series and hosting moderated panel discussions with foster care alumni. Our goal is to create an open dialogue between young adults with lived experience in the child welfare system and those who directly or indirectly serve this population. Special thanks to our co-host, City Living NY, and sponsor, the Brooklyn Arts Council, for helping us bring foster youth's voices to the forefront.
