Episode 190: Real Talk: Group Homes in Arizona

Summary:

In today's episode, we dive into the world of group homes for children in foster care. When family or foster families aren't an option, group homes become the next step for many kids. But what is life really like inside these homes?

We're joined by Shevaun Sullivan, Director of Group Home Relations at OCJ Kids, who shares her insights from years of experience. Shevaun discusses the day-to-day realities for kids in these environments and highlights the crucial role the community plays in supporting their well-being. If you've ever wondered how group homes function or how you can help make a difference, this conversation is a must-listen!
