## Resource

A tragic death in a Michigan adult foster care home has sparked urgent calls for reform. Kelly Harris died just four days after moving in, reportedly from a lack of insulin — a failure that’s now prompting criminal charges against the facility operator. With no public death registry, the state struggles to track patterns of neglect, especially when families aren’t involved. Advocates and lawmakers are pushing for mandatory reporting and transparency to protect vulnerable residents and empower families to make safer choices. This case underscores a critical gap in oversight — and the growing momentum to fix it. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
