Right now, there are over 400,000 children and youth in the foster care system. It’s an issue that affects every community, but remains hidden in plain sight.

The new film FOSTER goes beyond sensational headlines & stereotypes to provide a compelling look into the child protection system by immersing us in the lives of the children, youth, parents, and foster parents who experience it, and the professionals who work tirelessly every day in the field.

Watch the film, premiering on May 7 on HBO: hbo.com/foster and find out how you can help make a difference to help children & families thrive - not just survive. Please check local listings for time.

At last year’s Symposium, we previewed FOSTER – a documentary film – that will premiere on HBO Tuesday, May 7.
