21. Resources for Foster Families

Leah Mcmullin and her husband have fostered 14 children over 4 years. So they definitely deeply understand the support that foster families need. In this episode we break down 3 main areas of support and resources: how friends and family can support, local and national organizations created to assist foster families and books both for children and parents. Plus we hear a little bit of the Mcmullin’s story which is so beautiful. If you're new to foster care or considering it, this episode will be especially helpful!
