One Degree to Victory

Turning Trauma into Triumph for Foster Youth w/Sharon Dunlevy

Nelieta Hollis

What happens when a teen who calls herself "the spawn of Satan" finds someone who believes in her educational potential? Sharon Dunleavy, founder of Foster Care Training Today, shares this remarkable transformation story and many others as she opens our eyes to the critical importance of educational advocacy for children in foster care.

While trauma support dominates foster care training, Sharon explains why education cannot be relegated to secondary importance. 

For foster parents feeling overwhelmed by advocacy responsibilities, Sharon provides practical wisdom about building confidence, asking the right questions, and creating positive connections with schools outside of problem-focused meetings. 


Whether you're a foster parent, educator, social worker, or simply someone who cares about vulnerable children, this conversation will transform your understanding of what's possible when we advocate effectively.

I pray that the roots of setbacks, storms, satanic attacks, and even self-sabotage erode, crumble, and wither away, to be replaced by the incorruptible strength, peace, and joy that only heaven can give that will neither change nor fade.
