There are currently over 424,000 children in foster care in the United States with 114,000 waiting for their forever families.
Children are in foster care through no fault of their own and deserve a stable home environment. National Foster Care Month is a time to raise awareness and draw attention to the needs of children in foster care so that people will get involved whether as adoptive families, foster families or volunteers.
Doing something for these children, can really change a life! I was inspired by Dena’s story of her daughter that was adopted from foster care. What a beautiful and amazing young lady!
This month, Foster2Forever, along with The R House and Kinard Season, is hosting a month-long blog hop to raise awareness of the needs of our nation’s foster children.
Write on any topic of foster care that you feel led: your foster care journey, why foster care, opportunities to help foster children, how foster care has changed lives, challenges, etc. Just try to keep your post less than 500 words. Be sure and visit at least 2 other links and leave a comment.
Looking forward to reading about your foster care experiences!
