The U.S. has more than 420,000 youth in the foster care system. Less than 3% of them will graduate from a four-year college. Dr. Sharrica Miller is the exception to this staggering statistic. Her father sold drugs and her mother used them. Because her mother struggled to provide a stable environment when her father went to jail, Sharrica spent 12 years of her childhood in foster care.

What would social service work look like if all people had the human right to water, food, housing, education, and jobs at a living wage? These rights are defined in the UN’s Universal Declaration of Human Rights and its covenants. The USA is one of the few nations that has never ratified the Covenant on Economic Human Rights.
