Claudia Rowe is an award-winning journalist who has spent over three decades writing about youth and the courts. There came a time where the question of this individual's life leading up to this point demanded more research. For Clauda, the results discovered led to writing an incredible, shocking, and important new book, "Wards of the State: The Long Shadow of American Foster Care." This is important reading, destined to drive action, demand change, and not let the purpose go until we see it happen. The US spends over $34 billion on total child welfare activities. Claudia spoke with a number of these adults in 'the system', and a disproportionate number found themselves incarcerated. Many are the youth we see living on the streets. There's no question, said system is severely broken. 

To underscore the importance of this book, it is a finalist for the National Book Award in Nonfiction!
