Closing the Gap in Houston: Minority Children in the Foster System

Harris County experiences one of the highest rates of disproportionality (over-representation of minority children) in the Texas foster system. Join us as we explore causes and solutions.

The Advisory Committee on Promoting Adoption of Minority Children (ACPAMC) hosts educational forums across the state by bringing together experts, activists, and community members to discuss challenges, share success stories, and explore solutions to disparities in the foster system. Together, we aim to make a difference and bridge the gap for these young individuals.

Speakers Include:

• Leshia Fisher, CPS Regional Director, Region 6
• David Daniels, Former Foster Youth
• Mosley Hobson, Disproportionality Manager | DFPS State Office
• Sharibeth Niehaus , Disproportionality Manager | DFPS State Office

Lunch generously provided by Casey Family Programs.
