Ep 8 - House Bill 1227: Risking Children's Safety in Foster Care Visitation (feat. Angela Kraemer)

Angela Kraemer joins us on the podcast today as she shares her personal story with foster care and what inspired her to found a private agency that helps transport foster care children for their visitations.Angela candidly shares her personal story of being born addicted to cocaine and heroin, being in a detox unit as a newborn, and eventually being adopted by her half-aunt, only 13 years older than her. Though her early years were filled with turmoil, Angela had the chance to live and grow and eventually give back to those who were born into similar situations as hers.We hope you'll tune to this incredible story and thank you again, Angela, for sharing with us and the amazing work you do to help better the lives of those in foster care................................................................Want to know more about Fostering Change WA?
