Description:
In 1959, two actresses, with support from US troops in Asia and later the US government, establish a charity for mixed-race children who are ostracized by their communities. This is the beginning of Childhelp, which eventually develops comprehensive centers for abused and neglected children across the country. One such child is Jacob Fletcher, a bright boy traumatized by his stepfather, a lawyer, who endangers him and later returns from a ten-month jail sentence. Many of Jacob's peers have difficult pasts, but the dedicated staff at the former farm helps them heal through animal therapy.
