Foster Kids in NYC Tell All in First Ever Survey

News 4’s I-Team has obtained the results of the first-ever survey of children in NYC Foster Care. The annual survey of kids age 13 and up is required under a new local law, and 46 percent of eligible youth participated — about 1,200 kids — in exchange for a $10 gift card. The teens answered many questions about whether they feel emotionally supported by their social workers and foster parents, whether they are getting their basic needs met, and if they were the ACS commissioner what would they do differently? Melissa Russo reports.
