A foster care themed video review – Removed

A couple of weeks ago, I attended a training event for Trauma Sensitive Schools.  During that training, reference was made to a video on Youtube called “Removed”.   This clip has a theme regarding foster care, as well as child abuse/neglect. This video is not for the fainthearted.  It is powerful and speaks to child abuse/neglect as well as foster care.  Note that the child carries their belongings in a garbage bag.  There are initiatives that will collect suitcases and rolling bags for kids in foster care so that they don’t have to use garbage bags. The video is very accurate in it’s portrayal.  I warn you in advance that it may trigger your emotions.  Especially if this video is similar to a life that you led. Typically all of their belongings fit into the one garbage bag. This is a two part video.  I am linking to part 1 today.
