Everyone Provides Kinship Care | Adrian McLemore | TEDxDayton

Adrian has the unique perspective of growing up in the foster care system and later providing kinship care to his niece and nephew. He shares his experiences with both systems and explains why he believes kinship care is the better option. Adrian McLemore works for the Annie E. Casey Foundation in Baltimore, Maryland. Before moving to Baltimore in 2016, he spent his career working in the public and non-profit sectors in Dayton. Adrian’s true passion is serving children and families. Having emancipated from foster care at the age of 18, Adrian has dedicated his life to serving others. He is the co-founder of numerous organizations, initiatives and programs dedicated to improving the lives of children and families across Ohio and throughout the country. Adrian attended Wright State University and holds a degree in political science. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
