Welcome to Talking Back to the Teacher Podcast

Season 2 Episode 40

 

My guest this episode is Maryah Hansen.  Maryah is a beautiful soul. We walk back some memories from a tough childhood. She is a survivor and an overcomer. She
introduced me to the 3% which is a shocking statistic in which I am so proud of her to be included! ___________________________________________

This is a two-part series and both will open your eyes to statistics and data, and shed light on adoption in the U.S. and our foster care system. As promised, this is a in depth and quite frankly, an intense conversation that can be heart-wrenching at times. This journey is eye-opening, and I can't think of a student who has demonstrated more grit and perseverance in her journey!
