Description
by Keri Vellis (Author)
When child advocate Keri Vellis began fostering two severely abused and traumatized siblings, her role expanded beyond caregiving. She became their voice within an often inconsistent and patchwork system. Her memoir presents a vision of what could be and underscores the urgent need to reform the way society's forgotten children are cared for.
Author Biography
Keri Vellis and her husband Teddy are passionate and involved parents of six children. Although Keri began her career in the dental field, her life changed dramatically in 2013 when she and her husband became foster parents. Keri has now spent several years in the child-welfare arena and has dealt with both public and private agencies and school systems. She's worked with individual social workers along with various medical and therapeutic specialists, always advocating for children who can't speak for themselves. She lives with her family in Owens Cross Roads, Alabama.
