Dirty Little Secrets

Dirty Little Secrets: As Seen Through The Eyes of a Foster Child tells the true story of a young girl who is placed in a foster home when she is three years old. She is later thrust into the chaos of the New York City foster care system, which would become a long-term situation for the little girl. She would eventually reside in over 12 foster homes during a painful and scary childhood and 2 foster group homes during a difficult adolescence and young adulthood. Dirty Little Secrets also shows how foster care workers were so overwhelmed that they failed to detect the continuing incidents of abuse and neglect involving children in their care, even when the evidence was staring them in the face. At the age of 21, the young girl is cast into the world of the unknown, without anyone or anywhere to call home. She goes forth with only hope and determination to guide her. As an adult, discovery of her true self enables her to confront and overcome emotionally damaging realities from her childhood, which can no longer stay buried deep within her memory. This is the true story of her difficult life battle, but more importantly, her ultimate victory, which is her healing.
