Yet all across America, children whose families can no longer provide proper support are being put into foster care. Heather Rae brings to the screen her own story of a family affected by foster care due to drug and alcohol addiction in the deeply touching and extremely personal\u00a0<em>Family: The First Circle<\/em>. With her nephew having spent time in the foster care system, her brother in prison, and her sister-in-law recovering from drug rehabilitation, Rae looks not just at her own family, but at others whose children are similarly affected. She follows the police, who see firsthand the terrible conditions in which some children live, and those who volunteer to foster the children in hopes of providing a better life for them. Incredibly poignant and touching,\u00a0<em>Family: The First Circle<\/em>, shows a small slice of the life that affects nearly 300,000 children a year, making this a film that demands to be seen.
