Show Notes

The child welfare system in Texas is under heightened scrutiny thanks to a recent federal court ruling which found the state's foster care system so inadequate as to be unconstitutional. In this episode, F. Scott McCown, clinical professor at The University of Texas School of Law and a member of the Hogg Foundation's National Advisory Council, talks about what must be done to turn this public attention into lasting reform.
