Foster Care is such a crucial part of our system, to keep kids in a family setting when their family of origin is unable or unwilling to keep them safe at a certain point of time. It's also critical that the way kids in foster care are parented does not reinforce the negative beliefs they have about themselves, the world, and other people, which we talk about in more detail in this episode. The primary goal of foster care is to show kids that adults can be trusted, will be consistent, and follow through on what they say they are going to do. Whether you feel compelled to be a foster parent or not, there are many ways you can show up for the kids in your community!
