Language: English . Brand New Book ***** Print on Demand *****.In 2002, more than 530,000 children lived in foster care across the Nation. By 2011, that number dropped by more than 27 percent to just over 400,000. In 2008, Congress passed the Fostering Connections Act. This legislation helped connect children with families. In 2011, Congress went one step further. It passed the Child and Family Services Innovation and Improvement Act. This law gave States more flexibility and the opportunity for innovation in child welfare by easing Federal restrictions. In exchange, States had to improve safety standards, prevent child abuse, and reduce foster care re-entry rates. The Child Welfare League of America reports that one quarter of former foster kids become homeless after aging out of foster care. Some foster kids are simply dropped off at a bus stop on their 18th birthday and left to fend for themselves. The law now considers them adults. Nationwide more than 104,000 kids are waiting to be adopted. That is down from more than 130,000 kids in 2007. Federal Adoption Incentive Grants, which reward States for increasing adoption rates, can help reduce these numbers further.

'Wie is Antwone Fisher? leest als een geweldige literaire roman. Ik werd heen en weer geslingerd tussen lachstuipen en verdriet waardoor ik soms vergat dat het waargebeurd is. Ik hoop dat dit boek door alle lezers gekoesterd zal worden.' - Denzel Washington Antwone Quenton Fisher is producent en een van de meestgevraagde en bestbetaalde scenario-schrijvers in Hollywood. Hij schreef onder meer de scenario's voor Double 'O' Soul met Mariah Carey, Trigger Happy, Jelly Beans, geproduceerd door Will Smith, en Finding Fish met regisseur Denzel Washington in de hoofdrol. Dit is het verhaal van Antwone Quenton Fishers opmerkelijke leven. In de rapporten van zijn maatschappelijk werkers staat hij geregistreerd als Babyboy Fisher. Zijn moeder staat alleen als Antwone in de gevangenis geboren wordt. Antwone gaat van een weeshuis naar pleeggezinnen en wordt dertien jaar lang geestelijk en lichamelijk mishandeld. Vlak voor zijn zestiende verjaardag vindt hij tijdelijk een veilig onderkomen in een tuchtschool voor jongens. Tijdelijk, want al snel wordt Antwone dakloos. Fish, zoals Antwone dan wordt genoemd, is ervan overtuigd dat hij ongewenst en onbelangrijk is. Toch is hij vastbesloten zichzelf te overwinnen. Zijn romantische ziel, scherpe humor en rijke fantasie helpen hem te geloven in betere tijden. En na vele omzwervingen leert Antwone eindelijk zijn familie kennen. Zij kunnen veel van zijn vragen beantwoorden. Physical, Paperback.
