In today's episode of the Mama Advocate Podcast, Laura sits down with Kristen, a dedicated advocate for families in the foster care system. Kristen is not only a mother to four children—three biological and one adopted from foster care—but also brings 18 years of experience as a Licensed Speech Language Pathologist specializing in pediatrics and parent coaching.

Together with her husband Seth, Kristen has recently launched Hope Spring Community. This organization offers a compassionate environment for family visitations and provides extensive support services to foster care families. Kristen's unique blend of personal and professional insights equips her team to empower families in crisis, aiming to restore dignity and agency within a system often fraught with challenges.

Join Laura and Kristen as they discuss how Hope Spring Community is bringing hope and positive change to our foster care system.
