My foster care experience was amazing, allowing me to go to any college I wanted as well as providing me with a laptop for graduation. I stayed in touch with one family named the Cliftons and I considered them my parents as well as a sibling of their adopted grandchildren. I was with several other homes and group homes before the Cliftons. If you don’t find your fit with a family like I did, you will get brushed off at 21 with nowhere to go.
