Foster Care and Me
In this real-life narrative, Judith openly details the challenges faced and overcome, at every stage of her journey through the Foster Care System. She shares her experience of exclusions from School and College, a run in with the Law and then as a Care Leaver, a period of poor Mental Health.
But thankfully her story doesn’t end there….
Through the pages of her book you’ll read how, with the right support, she has been able to defy the stereotypical odds sometimes placed on those in Foster Care, to becoming an influential Social Entrepreneur.
You’ll also find ‘Messages’ she has penned to inspire hope to Children In Care and Care Leavers, along with ‘Messages’ to Foster Carers, Social Workers, School Staff and our Government, a call to action, to make the urgent changes she believes is needed to help improve the outcomes and life chances of our Looked After Community.
Foster Care and Me is NOW AVAILABLE to purchase here at Stores @ Books By Judith, Amazon Books,Waterstones, Foyles, Barnes and Nobles (Paperback) and Amazon Kindle, Kobo, Nook and Apple Books (Ebook).
