Brockton Public Library is pleased to present Mark Daley, author of the new memoir Safe: A Memoir of Fatherhood, Foster Care, and the Risks We Take for Family. Propulsive, intimate, heartrending, and unforgettable, SAFE offers readers a deeply personal window into what happens when the universal longing for family crashes up against the bureaucracy of a child protection system that often fails to consider the needs of the most vulnerable parties —the children themselves.
