Children are placed in foster care after enduring abuse, neglect, parental drug use and other issues, and many have experienced countless layers of trauma, grief and loss in their lives.
The priority of the foster care system is to reunite children with their families after they have worked through challenges. But when a judge has ruled that it is unsafe for a child to return to their family of origin, they need someone to step forward to adopt them. That’s where the Foundation’s work begins.
