Real Chicagoan – Foster Dad (The Jam)

When I produced stories and segment for “The Jam” morning show on WCIU-TV, I focused on highlighting people making a difference in their community. One favorite piece featured a dedicated foster dad who opened his life to an older child. After their heartwarming story aired, the foster child agency saw a big increase in inquiries and they liked the piece so much that it’s now being used to recruit new foster parents. Those are the results of my work that I love—having a meaningful impact on lives!
