A child is waiting for adoption: Meet Jasper

Virginia's child welfare system is currently struggling to meet essential needs. One specific case involves a five-year-old and a seven-year-old brother and sister who spent two years in foster care, experiencing seven different placements during that period. Additionally, the system continues to manage children awaiting adoption, such as a child named Jasper. These instances highlight the ongoing challenges and instability faced by youth within the state's current child welfare and foster care infrastructure.
