Approximately 20,000 of those youth (from U.S. foster care) age-out each year without positive familial supports or any family connection at all. Within 18 months of emancipation 40-50% of foster youth become homeless.

It's a kid who has new wings/life. Not all is a conspiracy.
I realize you have positive ties to CASA and that not all CASAs around the nation are inherently bad or corrupt -- as we could say about many organizations -- and I'm sincerely happy to hear that your mother did such amazing work. Truly!
Discernment should be applied, however, and any organization that works closely with children has me on guard -- especially considering the ex-CASA I know. She worked in a big(ish) city, rife with corruption -- maybe that's the difference?
I agree with you 100% -- not all is a conspiracy.
Thanks. I pray for wisdom and discernment daily to survive.
