What This Is

A Story That Opens Real Conversations

The Teen Edition of the Foster Care Adoption Awareness Reading Program is designed for middle and high school students.

Through a guided reading experience, students engage with a story that reflects real-life experiences connected to foster care, identity, and what it means to belong.

This is not a lecture or a one-time lesson.

It is a structured way to help students think, reflect, and connect.
