2003: A Broken Child Welfare System

January 29, 2003

Barak Goodman '86

Barak Goodman was a producer for a hard-hitting three-part Frontline report on the flaws and failures of America’s child welfare system, based on extraordinary access to Maine’s Department of Human Services and attention to the tragic death of a little girl. The report received a duPont-Columbia Award and culminated in a national dialogue in collaboration with the Fred Friendly Seminars.
