“Heather” PSA from First Star – www.firststar.org
I interviewed 14-year-old Heather Wilder in the course of writing my book. She is an inspiring young woman, former foster child, and now an advocate for child’s rights.
Please watch this short public service announcement – it will change your perspective about the rights of youth in our country.

Have a heart for those who are abused. Thank you for sharing. This is important.
