Regina navigated over 30 foster homes and psychiatric facilities before age 18, and the one woman, Jeanne Kerr, who believed in her. After Jeanne’s unsuccessful attempt to adopt Regina due to a racially motivated ruling, their bond is forced apart.
However, Jeann’s belief and love becomes her lifeline as she defeated the odds of a corrupt system and succeeded. 25 years later, Jeanne is finally able to adopt Regina in the same courthouse that denied them previously.
