This week we hear about the need for foster families. Laurie Hardie is a Foster Family Recruiter with Lutheran Community Services Northwest and Kayla, now an adult, was placed in a foster family through Lutheran Community Services at age 4 and eventually adopted by that foster mother.

There are just under 10,000 kids in foster care in Washington with so many more waiting for a family to care for them, that they spend nights in hotels because there aren’t enough families willing to take a child under their wing.
