On this week’s podcast we discuss the tragic deaths of Ma’khia Bryant and Aviva Okeson-Haberman, the system clawing back social security from youth in foster care, and new research on termination of parental rights. April Dinwoodie joins us to discuss what we’ve learned (and what we haven’t) when it comes to supporting adoptions and guardianships in America, and what she thinks of the recent calls to repeal or revisit federal adoption legislation. Reading Room‘We Should Not Be Here Today’: Ma’Khia Bryant, 16, Mourned, Celebrated at Her Funeralhttps://bit.ly/2QDY70uRemembering KCUR Reporter Aviva Okeson-Habermanhttps://n.pr/3h1XzwdFoster Care Agencies Take Thousands of Dollars Owed To Kids Most Children Have No Ideahttps://bit.ly/3vHyjPXComing Soon to Congress: Discussion on Child Support Clawbackhttps://bit.ly/3oJjvgHNew Study Confirms High Prevalence of Investigations, Loss of Parental Rightshttps://bit.ly/32B1GXlFive Early-Career Researchers Selected for the William T.
