For Years, Tribes Were Left Out Of Federal Foster Care Funding. That's Finally Changing.

Foster parent Alyssa Preciado describes her day to day as a bit of a zoo.

"I have two adopted sons and I currently have three foster children," said Preciado.

Preciado is a member of the Pascua Yaqui tribe. She said she likes being a foster parent here because it helps keep more of the tribe’s kids in a home where their culture is practiced. But as a single parent, making ends meet can sometimes be a challenge.
