No one can tell the story better than the child who experiences it.
Cobbled Streets collaborated with the team at Better Together Productions to proudly create the unique and powerful documentary, Rebecoming Me. The film depicts the lived experience of five individuals who navigated parts of their childhood within the foster care system. This raw and honest documentary digs into the wins, the failures, and the opportunities we all have to be a better community in support of children in foster care. It shares the real stories that will spark meaningful conversations about how we can all play a role in creating positive change for the foster care system in Colorado and catalyze national reform.
