Episode Synopsis

Over 200,000 children enter foster care each year in the United States. How can we create safe, stable, and nurturing environments for foster children who have, by definition, experienced a rupture of at least one of these elements? Dr. Camille Broussard, Executive Committee member for the American Academy of Pediatrics Council on Foster Care, Adoption, and Kinship Care and co-editor in chief of Fostering Health: Health Care for Children and Adolescents in Foster Care, joins us to talk about relational health for children in foster care.
