The past year+ has created even greater opportunity for people & churches to support the foster care community. The need for more families to provide temporary or permanent care is urgent. What could your next step be? https://t.co/Zsc9xYgnJJ

Approx. 6% of youth in foster care have been in the system for 5+ years. Most of them need adoptive families but the longer they live in the system, the less likely they will be matched with a family. We can & must do better! #fosteringhopene #adopt #nomorewaitingkids #whynotu

[Fostering Hope New England @FosteringHopeNE]

Hundreds of youth in MA foster care are waiting for an adoptive family. Youth like Syriana! How many children should be waiting for a safe, supported family? Hint. The answer is ZERO! Reach out if you have any questions or need guidance. #whynotu https://t.co/uCiB4iTcFX

“Why should I adopt a teen? Are they really looking for a family? As we all know, you never outgrow the need for a family. Everyone needs a sense of belonging.”

“If you’re going to do it, now is the time to do it,” he said. “Rhode Island’s kids need you the most right now.”

“But child advocates believe...once the restrictions are lifted, the need for foster and adoptive homes...will drastically increase.” We’ve been concerned about this possibility for a while. #foster #adopt #nomorewaitingkids https://t.co/Cq2ui8ooN7

“My only regret about aging is that I have less time to adopt kids and spend time with them. If I could live another 60 years, I would keep adopting the whole time.”

"Child Advocate Moira O’Neill praised efforts of the Division for Children, Youth & Families in mobilizing to support families & prevent abuse or neglect in the disruption caused by pandemic restrictions." Great work, NH! (1/2) #fosteringhopene #foster #adopt #familypreservation

We have the privilege of supporting families impacted by foster care who are experiencing crisis during this Covid season. In specific regions in MA, child welfare professionals can request support on behalf of families they serve & we empower church partners to respond. (1/3)

[Fostering Hope New England @FosteringHopeNE]

So far, we have received nearly 250 requests from child welfare professionals and advocates and, through the generosity of our church partners, we have affected nearly 500 children impacted by foster care by supporting the families caring for them.

[Fostering Hope New England @FosteringHopeNE]

We are glad to see NH expanding the voluntary services they offer to vulnerable families to help more families stay together.

Project ZERO is our vision of a day when ZERO children in foster care are waiting for a safe, supported family. Ideally that safe, supported family turns out to be the child's family of origin through safe reunification OR family preservation before they enter foster care. (1/2)

Fostering Hope guides churches and individuals into sustainable service to the foster care community. Here’s an overview of our mission and vision along with some thoughts from a few of our partners. #fosteringhopene https://t.co/gafHPI9FO1

It's #GivingTuesday! With so many incredible organizations, the opportunities can be overwhelming. We hope you will give generously to the causes that reflect your passion. If it's foster care and adoption, consider us! https://t.co/CoR12mbh1e #fosteringhopene

[Fostering Hope New England @FosteringHopeNE]

Would you help us ACCELERATE our impact by making a one-time gift or becoming a monthly financial partner?

Thanks to our partners, we have had the opportunity to touch the lives of hundreds of children and families impacted by foster care in 2020. We are seeing churches and individuals serve and support the foster care community in amazing ways. (1/4)

[Fostering Hope New England @FosteringHopeNE]

But there are so many more children in need of safe and supported families. By adding $30k in new year-end gifts and 30 new monthly financial partners, ACCELERATE 30|30 will lay the foundation to ACCELERATE the reach of our model and resources to twice as many communities.
