The Reality of Foster Care & How You Can Help with Fostering the Family

Foster care is closer to home than you might think. In this episode, we sit down with Kim Trainer and Susie Boyle from Fostering the Family to discuss the reality of the foster care system, why so many families struggle to continue fostering, and how communities can step in to help. Kim shares the heartbreaking moment that ignited her passion for foster care advocacy, and Susie opens up about her personal experience fostering and how it changed her life forever. Together, they’re on a mission to provide wraparound support to foster, adoptive, and kinship families, because no one should have to navigate this journey alone. Learn the small but powerful ways YOU can get involved.
