Thirteen years after its founding, the International Foster Care Alliance (IFCA) is embarking on a new project this year. Over the next year, we will host four symposia featuring 25 young leaders (many of whom are advocates) who have experienced out-of-home care in North America, Latin America, and the Caribbean. They will share their personal stories and discuss systemic issues and efforts to address them.　 For more information, please go to this web page: https://ifca-us.or
