The Fosters
Stef, a police officer, and her partner Lena, a school vice principal, fight to protect their growing, diverse family as they open their home to a hardened foster teen whose turbulent past threatens to upend everything they've built.
Stef Foster, a dedicated police officer, and her partner Lena Adams, a school vice principal, have built a close-knit, loving family with Stef's biological son from a previous marriage, Brandon, and their adopted twins, Mariana and Jesus. Their lives are disrupted in unexpected ways when Lena meets Callie, a hardened teen with an abusive past who has spent her life in and out of foster homes. Lena and Stef welcome Callie and her brother, Jude, into their home, thinking it's just for a few weeks until a more permanent placement can be found. But life has something else in store for the Fosters.
