More than half the people in America believe children are in foster care because they have done something wrong, according to recent polls. For more than three decades, Jennifer Perry has made it her mission to change that perception and open people’s eyes to the truth: Children are placed in foster care by no fault of their own and are sometimes victims of abuse or neglect. As the executive director of Children’s Action Network and co-founder of FosterMore, Perry uses her connections in Hollywood and politics to change the narrative around foster youth and share stories in order to show the world who they really are. She tells host Giselle Fernandez that her work became personal when she herself adopted her daughters through foster care.
