Inside The Sanctuary: Foster Care, Finding Permanence, and Forever Homes

from Born In The Bend · host Born In The Bend

In this powerful episode, Jenny Fridge of The Sanctuary Foster Care Services shares her family's personal journey into foster care and adoption, and the mission that now fuels her work. She pulls back the curtain on the realities of the foster system: the trauma children carry, the high burnout rate among foster families, and why support is the missing piece. We sit down with Jenny as she explains how the organization's four pillars, which are in-home therapy, 24/7 crisis response, respite care, and community support, are redefining what foster and post-adoption care can look like.
