The Ivan Allen College’s Digital Integrative Liberal Arts Center (DILAC) will be featured in an upcoming “Wednesday’s Child” segment on Fox 5 Atlanta.
Wednesday’s Child, a partnership between Fox 5 and the Georgia Division of Family and Children Services Permanency Unit, is a weekly televised feature that helps recruit adoptive families who can provide permanent and loving homes for children in Georgia’s foster care system.
Tyler, Danielle, Keith, and Callie, the four siblings who appear on the segment, were filmed at the DILAC, which is housed in the Skiles Building. Wednesday’s Child collaborated with the Ivan Allen College to tape the segment as a result of the children’s interest in Georgia Tech athletics, video game design, and digital technology.
The segment will air on Fox 5 on December 7 around 6:30 p.m., December 11 around 10:30 p.m., and December 14 around 9:15 a.m.
To learn more about Tyler, Danielle, Keith, and Callie, call the adoption hotline at 1-877-210-5437.
