Question: I was just asked to take on a Spanish-speaking teen with a baby. Do you have any resources to address fostering a teenager with a language barrier, as well as supporting her in developing adult skills and independence? She comes with a complicated history involving immigrating here on her own. 

Resources:

  • Welcome an Older Child to Your Home (Resource)
  • Former Foster Youth Voices (Resource)
  • Helping a Child Heal from Trauma (Resource)
