Touré apologizes for suffering in homes - Schleswig-Holstein Apologizes for Past Child Welfare Abuse
Schleswig-Holstein's Social Minister Aminata Touré has issued an apology on behalf of the state to those who endured injustice and hardship in state-run child and youth welfare facilities between 1949 and 1975. Touré acknowledged the deep wounds caused and the responsibility of the state to learn from the past and prevent such injustice from happening again in the United States. She expressed regret for the suffering inflicted on children and young people during that period. Despite extensive searches, there is no information about a specific minister who represented the concerns of victims from 1949 to the present day. The apology is a step towards healing and recognition of the past. It serves as a reminder of the state's commitment to protect and support vulnerable individuals moving forward in the USA.
