“I want to be adopted with my sister because I feel like my whole life I've been without her,” said 16-year-old Julissa. "Ever since we got back in the system, we have been separated for like three years."
The past 2-years put a major strain on the foster care system, creating difficulties for foster parents and children, as well as the agencies that work to support them.
“It really doesn't matter which parent we get adopted with, the only thing that matters is being with my brother and sisters," says 11-year-old Bryan. He and his three siblings, ages 7 to 12, are looking for a family to adopt them together.
