OUR VISION
We have high hopes for what we can achieve within this community. Our vision is to support foster children and help provide resources to those who care for them. The statistics for children in foster care are heartbreaking and we aim to help strengthen the system so that these numbers can improve.
WHAT DO WE DO?
We provide comfort bags to children entering the foster system. These bags are meant to provide the child with items that will soothe them during the stressful and scary experience of being placed in a new home. The second bag we deliver is to support the foster parent with getting the essentials for that child. Kids entering the system often have nothing and the expense of providing all those items is more than the state usually reimburses.
OUR NEXT STEPS
In the future we would like to be able to support the system by helping to recruit new foster parents, providing resources for therapeutic support groups, and giving foster parents some much-needed respite.
