Foster care and adoption exist because of a gap. A gap between a child and their birth parents ability to care for them. As with any gap, challenge, obstacle, or trial, there is inevitably a gift waiting for those that chose to be a part of the solution. In this weeks episode of the Mama’s Well Podcast we talk with DeJuana Jernigan, President of Arms Wide Adoption Services and President of the Texas Foster Care Association, about some of the biggest gaps that parents and children face.
