Former Juvenile Officer Has Fostered 85 Teens

Joseph Morton has opened his home in a big way to children in Tennessee's foster care system. Morton has been a foster father for 85 teenage boys. His first foster son came after a 20-year career as a juvenile officer. Opening his home was another way for Morton to give back to troubled youth. After bringing the teens home, Morton gets them a YMCA membership, takes them shopping, and starts showing them their own potential. Helping these boys grow to manhood is a source of pride for Morton.
