Celebrating Melvyna McCallister and her incredible 40-year legacy with Astor Services in the Bronx! Melvyna has been a truly irreplaceable part of our Astor family—known for her warmth, compassion, and unwavering dedication to every client & colleague she’s touched along the way.

Behind every successful foster placement is a network of committed partners—caseworkers, providers, schools, clinicians, and advocates. We’re grateful for the collaboration & shared mission that makes lasting impact possible for children & families we serve. #FosterCareAwareness

It can be tempting to hide from our difficult emotions. But when we allow ourselves to sit with what we are feeling, we can acknowledge what we’re going through and eventually move past it. With practice, we may even find that life’s ups and downs feel easier to handle.

May is Foster Parent Appreciation Month.
Foster parents open their homes—and their hearts—to children when they need it most. Their patience, dedication, and compassion make an incredible difference in the lives of youth and families every day.
