“Now a lot of you sitting here are film-makers, and you will readily understand the challenges of expressing the horrors of child abuse and neglect in a way that places the bad, emphasizes the hope, and preserves the dignity and humanity of the children. It’s a real challenge we have struggled with for a decade. Take a look at this…This is the work of a wildly talented young film-maker called Jax. She made this PSA for First Star and our special kids only for love. We are delighted to thank her here this afternoon. Stand up Jax!”
