Hey guys, so I am making a persuasive argument to my public speaking class next Wednesday on youth Aging Out. I have to limit it to 12 minutes. I am in my room rummaging through books, NFYAC folders, FosterClub stuff, all my Jim Casey stuff. What should I narrow it down to? If you had a chance to tell a class about foster care in 12 minutes what would you say- obviously give them background and stats, share your story to a degree but what else? What are some good websites for people completely new to foster care?
