We’re Still Here
Client: Congregations for Kids (foster care organization)
Role: Writer, Director
Production Company: Caravan

“We’re Still Here” pulled from my first-hand experience as a foster parent to create this PSA about the urgent need for support for kids in care.
We were lucky enough to have footage from a piece CFK did with our Cinematographer 5+ years ago and access to the three young actors who were featured in it. This gave us the remarkable opportunity to show how kids in foster grow up but remain stuck in the industry. My hope was to give this piece gravity, give kids in care dignity and humanity, and inspire hope and action for those who view it.
