On this week’s episode we first talked to Kat McCloud about the new season of “Self-Taught,” a podcast from foster youth, for foster youth that just joined our SafeCamp Audio Network. McCloud talks about the first season of the show, what to expect in the second (which is now out) and how she decides what she is comfortable sharing publicly.Bruce Lesley, president of First Focus on Children, joins us to discuss a new tax reform bill that includes a big proposal to provide more financial support for low-income parents and children, as well as federal budget deliberations and what states are doing related to child spending. Bruce Lesley is president of First Focus on Children. Prior to his work at First Focus on Children, he served as Senior Health Policy Advisor on the Senate Finance and Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Committees for U.S. Senator Jeff Bingaman. Reading RoomSelf-Taught: Former Foster Youth on Sex, Health, and Lifehttps://safecampaudio.org/show/self-taught/Money and Maltreatmenthttps://bit.ly/3hcelIUNew Research Links Increased Minimum Wage to Reduced Child Maltreatmenthttps://bit.ly/2RvAqr7Support Grows For No-Strings-Attached Cash For Families To Prevent Foster Care Removalshttps://bit.ly/3DD1NUYLet the Child Tax Credit Workhttps://bit.ly/3aALZHh
