Foster care isn’t about building a family. It’s about stepping right into brokenness on purpose. It’s about loving kids with everything in you while knowing you'll have to let go.
😳Bouncing between homes, couch surfing, or staying in hotels should not be options! Every day without a stable, caring adult deepens trauma and makes it harder to trust, succeed, and feel safe.
YOU can help:
1️⃣ Stability: Being in ONE stable, predictable home.
2️⃣ Connection: Regular, consistent relationships they can trust.
3️⃣ Hope: They are worthy. They are valued. They are lovable!
