PINcast episode 10: Adoption project from KPCC

Filed by KOSU News in Public Insight Network.
February 1, 2013

In this episode of PINcast, we look at a reporting project from Southern California Public Radio (KPCC in Los Angeles) that culminated in a live event full of adoptive parents with remarkable stories to share. We hear from SCPR’s Public Insight Analyst, Ashley Alvarado, who discusses her own family’s experience with adoption and foster care, and we hear a personal adoption story from PIN source Heather Dinkins.

If you have any feedback or ideas for stories or projects we should include in future PINcast episodes, email me at aweggel@americanpublicmedia.org.

Here are a few relevant links to the SCPR project:
