Barry Farmer and his three children.

In this episode, Rob and Dana talk to adoptive father and foster care advocate Barry Farmer.

Barry is a single dad who adopted 3 boys out of foster care. His story is also unique because he became a foster parent at the age of 20 and he is an African American man raising three white children. Barry was raised by his grandmother and talks about kinship care as well as the challenges he’s faced raising his 3 boys. His story went viral a few years back and he has been featured in multiple local and national media outlets.
