“Providing babysitting, providing transportation to doctor’s appointments, helping with extracurricular activities,” said Nevetta King, the director of Faith-Based Initiatives at SJRC Texas.That is part of the current foster care crisis, especially for teens and sibling groups. “They’re really just lost in a world of strangers and strange places, and so they really lose hope,” McKay said. “That’s where a large percentage of our youth that don’t have families and a safe place to call home end up in our juvenile justice system, and then they graduate to prison. So it’s just a real horrific cycle.”
