‘Red Tails’ At Edmond Town Hall, May 20—

Free Screening Of Film With A Message

For Foster Care Awareness Month

In honor of May being National Foster Care Awareness Month, Dr Jacqueline Harris, DCF Regional Medical Director, along with the Danbury Department of Children and Families, will offer a free screening of the feature film Red Tails.

The public is invited to see the film at the Edmond Town Hall theatre, 45 Main Street, on Sunday, May 20, at 4 pm.

Parental guidance is suggested.

The PG-13 film features Terrence Howard and Cuba Gooding Jr and offers an action-packed story of the Tuskegee Airmen WWII pilots. Dr Harris has a personal connection to the Tuskegee Airmen and was moved by the film’s inspiring message about overcoming adversity.

The almost 5,000 children in state care in Connecticut know hardship all too well.

First Selectman Pat Llodra is expected at the event, and Dr Harris will offer brief welcoming remarks, with DCF staff on hand to share more information on the joys of foster care and adoption.
