The foster care system is designed to be a temporary solution for children whose parents cannot care for them. However, life is complicated. Many foster youth that age out of the system find it difficult to transition into greater society as self sustaining, healthy adults. Today, we are speaking with Jack Cortis, Kim Overaa and Mary Cherry of the Family Harvest Farm in Pittsburgh, California. Their program provides transitioning foster youth an opportunity to work, learn social-emotional and work skills and launch themselves into the broader community.
