3 · SUPPORT FOSTER CARE
Make a difference in foster care
Foster families need more than encouragement—they need a community around them. There are many practical ways you can support children and families involved in foster care, whether you have a lot of time or just a little.
From providing meals and childcare to offering respite, encouragement, and practical support, every act of service can make a meaningful difference.
