Listen Later

When families face crises that could tear them apart, where can they turn for a compassionate helping hand? Kayla Palacios, the dynamic VP of Operations at Better Together, joins us on the Good Neighbor Podcast to illuminate the organization's mission of keeping families intact during their most vulnerable times. Kayla shares touching stories and the innovative strategies Better Together employs to provide temporary safe havens for children, averting the need for long-term foster care and ensuring parents can address the challenges they face, from homelessness to medical emergencies, without the added heartbreak of losing their children.

Listen in as we explore the underlying issues that often lead families to Better Together's door, with unemployment and underemployment playing a significant role for 76% of those they serve. Kayla dispels common myths about their work, emphasizing that their goal isn't to replace foster care but to fortify families with the skills and support needed to thrive independently. Through local community collaboration and mentorship, Better Together casts a lifeline to parents, empowering them to overcome adversity and create a promising future for their children and themselves. This episode is not merely a conversation—it's a testament to the power of community-driven action and the transformative impact it can have on families in crisis.
