    A foster care system where every child has a loving home | Sixto Cancel

    In the US, youth in foster care are nearly twice as likely as war veterans to suffer from PTSD.

Learn more about his plan to help thousands of kids searching for a loving home with one simple, systemic switch. (This ambitious idea is a part of the Audacious Project, TED's initiative to inspire and fund global change.)
