A conversation about children navigating both cancer and the foster care system—and the woman determined to make sure they aren’t forgotten.
Our guest today, Kara Buente, started The Bella Project. She shares what drove her to help children with cancer in the foster care system, and how the Bella Project was built.
We tend to forget the advocacy that foster care children need when they get sick. The system does not work for them the way it works for other pediatric cancer cases. Find out why in today’s episode.
