About this listen

Every Child Matters is brought to you by Because One Matters. Because One Matters is a Georgia non-profit that exists to both positively influence and directly impact the path of foster children and young adults from low-income communities. Our purpose is to show children and young adults that their circumstances don't define them. We want them to know that they matter, they are loved, valued and they can be anything they set their minds to. During this podcast, we will talk to individuals with experience in foster care; from previous foster children to foster parents to foster organizations and lawmakers (or policymakers). We know that individuals who have directly or indirectly experienced foster care, have a story to share, and it's our privilege to share it with you.2023 Every Child Matters Social Sciences
