Lehigh Valley’s NPR station 91.3 WLVR did a story this past week featuring Merakey Intake Coordinator Kathleen Haggert. In the story, which touted Merakey’s crucial work in social services, Kathleen discussed the current foster care crisis and our efforts to connect with potential foster parents. The story titled “The foster care system needs moms, dads, families” can be heard on wlvr.org.
