The struggle with the child welfare system is sometimes the law and the timeline that kids are on just doesn't allow the time that parents need for recovery.
What happens when a child's world is turned upside down by a parent's addiction? In this eye-opening episode of the Landmark Recovery Podcast, host Zach Crouch sits down with Carey Wong, a leading voice in child advocacy. Carey, co-founder of the Child Advocacy Clinic at IU McKinney School of Law and an adjunct professor, brings her wealth of experience to the table, discussing the intricate challenges faced by children of addicts.
From her journey into child welfare to the heartbreaking realities of families in crisis, Carey sheds light on the vital role of the child welfare system in safeguarding vulnerable children. She dives into the common factors that lead families into the cycle of addiction and the uphill battle to break free from intergenerational trauma. One of the toughest hurdles? The ticking clock that often doesn't align with a parent's recovery timeline.
Through her work, Carey underscores the urgent need for stable environments for these children and how society can step up to make a difference. This episode is a must-listen for anyone wanting to understand the deep impact of parental addiction on children and the relentless efforts to advocate for their well-being.
