This month, anti-equality lawmakers passed dangerous, discriminatory legislation targeting prospective LGBTQ foster and adoptive parents in <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hrc.org\/blog\/discrimination-in-ok-oklahoma-gov.-mary-fallin-signs-anti-lgbtq-bill\" target=\"_blank\">Oklahoma<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hrc.org\/blog\/discrimination-in-kansas-governor-signs-anti-lgbtq-bill\" target=\"_blank\">Kansas<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>These attacks are especially cruel, given that <a href=\"http:\/\/assets2.hrc.org\/files\/assets\/resources\/HRC_Youth_Foster_Care-issue_brief_FINAL.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">research<\/a> consistently shows that LGBTQ youth are overrepresented in the foster care system. Many of these young people enter foster care after experiencing family rejection because of their LGBTQ status and they continue to be vulnerable to discrimination and mistreatment while in care. These discriminatory bills only exacerbate the challenges they face. Further, restricting the pool of prospective parents makes it more difficult for all children to find their forever families.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hrc.org\/blog\/hrc-celebrates-national-foster-care-month-2018\" target=\"_blank\">Throughout May<\/a>, HRC has shared stories and resources across our platforms to raise awareness of issues surrounding <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hrc.org\/resources\/about-foster-parenting\" target=\"_blank\">foster parenting<\/a> and the <a href=\"http:\/\/assets2.hrc.org\/files\/assets\/resources\/HRC_Youth_Foster_Care-issue_brief_FINAL.pdf?_ga=2.25352189.1371024335.1525098748-764321219.1515002713\" target=\"_blank\">urgent need to support LGBTQ youth in foster care<\/a>.<\/p>\n<blockquote data-lang=\"en\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Here are the 10 inclusivity benchmarks that <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/HRC?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@HRC<\/a> uses to determine whether <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/foster?src=hash&#038;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#foster<\/a> agencies are <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/LGBTQ?src=hash&#038;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#LGBTQ<\/a>-inclusive. \ufffd\ufffd\u2611\ufe0f <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/Ufbu8hpwyf\">t.co\/Ufbu8hpwyf<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Human Rights Campaign (@HRC) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/HRC\/status\/999337916206854144?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">May 23, 2018<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote data-lang=\"en\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">After several foster family placements, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/HRC?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@HRC<\/a> Foundation Youth Ambassador Weston Charles-Gallo found his forever home with two dads and six siblings. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/NFCM2018?src=hash&#038;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#NFCM2018<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/lgEakvnkUw\">pic.twitter.com\/lgEakvnkUw<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Human Rights Campaign (@HRC) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/HRC\/status\/996148148404871168?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">May 14, 2018<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>\u00a0In partnership with FosterClub, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hrc.org\/ACAF\" target=\"_blank\">HRC Foundation\u2019s All Children &#8211; All Families project<\/a> launched its #FosterEquality campaign this month to share stories from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hrc.org\/blog\/national-foster-care-month-meet-courtney-eric-weston\" target=\"_blank\">eight young LGBTQ leaders<\/a> who have experienced foster care.<\/p>\n<blockquote data-lang=\"en\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">This National Foster Care Month, meet Courtney, Eric and Weston &#8212; three young LGBTQ leaders working to advocate for other youth with experiences in foster care. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/FosterEquality?src=hash&#038;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#FosterEquality<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/NFCM18?src=hash&#038;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#NFCM18<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/uAybZApXFK\">t.co\/uAybZApXFK<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Human Rights Campaign (@HRC) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/HRC\/status\/997846839545098240?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">May 19, 2018<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote data-lang=\"en\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">This National Foster Care Month, meet these five young LGBTQ leaders working to advocate for other youth with experiences in foster care. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/FosterEquality?src=hash&#038;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#FosterEquality<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/NFCM18?src=hash&#038;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#NFCM18<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/ovs28IutD7\">t.co\/ovs28IutD7<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Human Rights Campaign (@HRC) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/HRC\/status\/999470037973909504?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">May 24, 2018<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hrc.org\/blog\/national-foster-care-month-meet-dameon-david-marcus-lucina-timothy\" target=\"_blank\">These incredible young leaders<\/a> are working every day to make a difference in the lives of other young people across the U.S. Their experiences underscore the importance of learning from and advocating for LGBTQ youth in care who all too often struggle with understanding their identities without the support of an affirming adult.<\/p>\n<p>HRC advocates for foster youth all year round through our <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hrc.org\/ACAF\" target=\"_blank\">All Children &#8211; All Families project<\/a> that helps agencies improve their services for LGBTQ youth in foster care.<\/p>\n<p><em>Learn more about All Children\u2013All Families\u2019 work to promote LGBTQ cultural competency in adoption and foster care at <\/em><a href=\"http:\/\/hrc.org\/acaf\" target=\"_blank\"><em>hrc.org\/acaf<\/em><\/a><em>.
