Synopsis
Over 20,000 youth are released from the foster care system each year who have turned 18 and are no longer considered wards of the court. What happens to these children who have been shuttled from house to house but rarely find a home? This is their story portrayed by the mythical Li'l Gnome who seeks a home before aging out. With no family of his own to return to, Li'l Gnome will begin his adult life extremely disadvantaged but for his own resiliency. The Sacramento CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates) has, as their new initiative, a program that will help aged-out foster youth, like Li'l Gnome, better integrate into society. Read the hopeful story of Li'l Gnome's journey and how he eventually finds a home and support CASA with your purchase.
