FAIRMONT — Jason Weber, national director of More Than Enough, thinks the way governments and communities approach the care of foster kids needs to change.

“A lot of the times, communities have been guilty in the past of coming to their child welfare system and pointing out potholes,” Weber said. “’Hey, you guys are failing here, you’re failing here and you’re failing here.’ What we teach in these workshops and everything we do is, we don’t point out potholes. We grab buckets of asphalt and help fill them.”
