Foster Care Speech

Decent Essays
For my speech over foster care, I expected people to know what foster care was, but not to know very much about it. I had twelve people fill out the audience analysis surveys, so the results are not completely accurate about the entire audience. I had two open ended questions, because I wanted to know the audience thoughts and definition on foster care.
I asked the audience to describe what foster care was in their own words. Almost all the answers were mostly correct. The audience seemed to have an idea on what foster care is. Some were not completely sure what foster care is. I also asked the audience about their thoughts on the foster care system. There were many answers that said they know there is problems with the foster care system.

Instead, children come into the foster care system in which they move from foster home to foster home, without loving parents or a permanent family.
