The Very Impatient Advocate



The Very Impatient Caterpillar by Ross Burch is my favorite Picture Book of 2019, because it captures the advocacy struggle so well.

As foster care youth, alumni and ally advocates, we have a shared sense of URGENCY. The work we are doing matters so much, and the initiatives we are trying to launch and policies we are trying to change feel long overdue.

And yet, we are often faced with delays and/or needing to take additional time to figure out more details...

Because we want the things we are trying to achieve to have strong wings to fly, and to soar upwards towards success and long-term sustainability.
