we use the power of stories to improve the fate of youth in foster care

​
 
BONUS BABIES  
is a social betterment program that uses purposeful storytelling
​to connect our listeners with their emotions and inspire them to bring
​about positive social change in the community 



 Jayne Amelia Larson
​is the creator and host and 
is a Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) 
volunteer
​with youth in foster care


​
"A show that has no easy answers, only hard questions... 
in the same way a CASA works,
I explore all things in the foster care maze by talking
to kids, parents, caregivers, attorneys, social workers, therapists, adoptees,
adoptive parents, really ​anybody and everybody who will speak to me to
keep the conversation open and the information flowing about all things CASA."
