Case Study Of An Art Intervention For Older Foster Youth, Ashley Plushnik, Sarah Morris
Creative Activity and Research Day - CARD
Fostering Art is a photography intervention for adolescent foster youth. Participants in the evaluation study completed a pretest at the start and a posttest upon completion of the one-year program.
