This presentation looks at the challenges faced by American foster care youth through a symbolic interactionist lens. It focuses on SI's emphasis on social interaction through symbols, the collective meaning associated with those symbols, and the individual's extraction of that meaning in forming a sense of self. It also considers the SI view that both humans and their environments are in a constant state of flux, emphasizing the power of free will and possibilities for change.
