Episode 277 | Comfort Cases: Fostering Change One Backpack at a Time with Rob Scheer
In today's episode of Psych Talk I chat with Rob Scheer, founder of Comfort Cases, about the United States foster care system. We start the discussion with Rob sharing his personal experience with the foster care system. We discuss Comfort Cases, a non-profit organization Rob founded, and what inspired him to create it. We discussed the foster care system in the United States and some of the challenges that children and youth in the U.S. foster care system often face. Rob discusses the connection between the U.S. foster care system and mental health and highlights some areas of the U.S. foster care system that he feels need to improve. We end the discussion by highlighting ways individuals can get involved with children and youth in foster care. Information shared by guests on Psych Talk are reflective of their own values, perspectives, and life experiences. Psych Talk values platforming various perspectives and experiences even if those views are not necessarily reflective of Psych Talk’s values and perspectives.
