Join us as we explore the over-representation of minority kids in the Texas foster system in the Valley and how we can help close the gap.
About this Event

The Rio Grande Valley experiences a unique kind of disproportionality (over-representation of minority children) in the Texas foster system. Join us as we explore what is contributing to this injustice and how we can help create solutions.

The Advisory Committee on Promoting Adoption of Minority Children (ACPAMC) hosts educational forums across the state by bringing together experts, activists, and community members to discuss challenges, share success stories, and explore solutions to disparities in the foster system. Together, we aim to make a difference and bridge the gap for these young individuals.

Speakers Include:

  • Mosley Hobson, Disproportionality Manager | DFPS State Office
  • Sharibeth Niehaus , Disproportionality Manager | DFPS State Office

Lunch generously provided by Casey Family Programs.
