Rep. Bass Welcomes More Than 30 Former Foster Youth To Washington, DC

“Any time a foster youth falls through the cracks, the government is really the one responsible,” Rep. Bass said. “When we remove children from their parents, it’s the government that becomes the parents. What can we do better? What are the tangible solutions? That’s what this event is about. We had young people from all over the country speaking to over Members of Congress from all over the country. Especially in a time marred by partisanship, what can bring this country together are our young people. We can come together and work to raise foster youth voices.”
