If you have participated in an RPC workshop and want a deeper understanding of the real life implications of being removed from one’s home and entering the foster care system or if you give workshops and would like a way to bring some of the concepts to life, we suggest watching this 30-minute webinar by Beth Barto, LMHC, CEO of LUK, Inc. Beth finds that showing Removed gives foster parents “a vivid picture of what it must be like" for children entering the foster care system. She says that the video facilitates “a much more emotional connection to the material in the curriculum by exposing [viewers] to experiences of foster children from a child's perspective.”
