Join Hudson Institute President and CEO John P. Walters for a conversation with American Enterprise Institute Senior Fellow Naomi Schaefer Riley on her new book, "No Way to Treat a Child: How the Foster Care System, Family Courts, and Racial Activists Are Wrecking Young Lives."

"No Way to Treat a Child" details the dangerous conditions in America’s child welfare system and the forces that have moved the system away from protecting children at risk. Ms. Schaefer Riley explains how radical ideology, drugs, and “the child-welfare cartel” have put kids in danger, and explores the reform potential of big data, religious communities, and recruiting more middle-class Americans into the foster-care system. Please join Hudson Institute for this important conversation.
