What’s Foster Care Like? Learn From the Youth Who Lived Through It.

Rachael Myrow - KQED Arts

The Santa Cruz Museum of Art & History, in the San Francisco Bay Area of California, invited a team of former foster youth and advocates to help put together an exhibit on foster care in California, called 'Lost Childhoods.' The exhibit features photographic portraits and other artworks by former foster youth and other local artists chosen by former foster youth who are on the museum’s advisory committee. The exhibit also includes a collection of "action cards" which offer many suggestions on ways to help foster youth in the community.
