Make a Difference in the Life of a Foster Child

Becoming a foster parent is a decision that will change the life of a child in care and your own life for the better. Beyond inviting a child into your home, as a foster parent you will be a source of support, understanding and kindness for a child who needs your care. You have the opportunity to light up a life and make a significant impact on the way that their future is shaped.

One Adult Can Make the Difference

Learning about foster care can be intimidating, but often it is powerful to hear from those that have been there. These firsthand stories will allow prospective foster parents (like you) to hear what you can expect as a foster parent, what foster children require and understand just how big of an impact you can have on a child in care.
