Ep No.57 Part 1. The Story I lived With Foster Care w/Aland stamp

Welcome to this episode of Unity Through Diversity.

This week's special guest is Aland Stamp, little background from Aland:

Aland Stamps is a former foster youth who grew up in foster care during the late 70’s and 80’s after his mother, who was a heroin addict, eventually lost her parenting rights as a result of her addiction. After 11 years in foster care and 20 different placements (foster homes, group homes and institutions), Aland aged out of foster care and into homelessness. Within the first two and a half years of aging out, Aland couch-surfed, became a crack addict and alcoholic. He ate out of soup kitchens daily and bounced around from homeless shelter to homeless shelter on the streets of the Cass Corridor in Detroit. He was in a near-fatal car accident, sold drugs to support his own drug habit, was convicted of three felony drug charges and sentenced up to 20 years in prison for probation violations and felony assault. Aland served 7 of that 20-year sentence before being released.

In this episode, we deeply dive into those stories with Aland to connect his current mission with River Jordan INC with the mission of to help others who have lived similar experiences and struggle with making a mental transition out of foster care and lead them to foster care recovery. 

Part 2 will be released in next week.
