Foster Care

GREENBUSH, ME - JUNE 30: Debbie McLaughlin, of Greenbush, Me., plays hide-and-seek with her 3-year-old grandson in her home on Friday, June 30, 2017. McLaughlin and her husband are fostering their grandson, who was born drug-affected to their daughter, along with an infant from another family. With more than 1,000 children born drug-affected in Maine each year, the foster care system in Maine is stretched thin to accommodate the growing crisis of children in need of healthy, safe, drug-free homes. In the past four years, McLaughlin estimates she and her husband have fostered around 15 children. (Photo by Tristan Spinski for The Washington Post via Getty Images)
