In this episode I take an in-depth look at foster care youth and their unique barriers to succeed in overcoming recidivism. The disproportionality of foster youth and their over representation in the justice system require us to look closely at why this is happening. Why foster youth? How are foster youth different than homeless youth? What does this over representation tell us about the importance of stable households for youth? We cover all these topics and more on Advice from the Inside Out. We also sit down and have a conversation with Tia Holiday. Tia is the Postsecondary Education Lead at Intentional Futures (iF), a strategy and design consulting agency in Seattle, Washington. Her primary focus is on bringing attention to racial and socioeconomic equity while collaboratively developing inclusive and social justice-oriented solutions to the highlighted inequities. Tia has a unique lens on our topic and provides our listeners with valuable lessons on Advice from the Inside Out. Special thanks to Tess Buckley
