Yesterday was a big day for KS teens in foster care as @GovLauraKelly signed HB 2536, the SOUL Family Permanency Bill. This bill allows teens to choose their SOUL Family, helping them as they begin to navigate adulthood.

At least 1 in 7 children have experienced child abuse or neglect in the past year in the US. Communities can positively impact families:

- Strengthen economic support
- Support parents
- Provide quality care

According to the @HHSGov, to eradicate child abuse it is vital to create proactive strategies to stop abuse at the source. TFI holds child safety as one of our core values! Together we can end child abuse! #ChildAbusePreventionMonth #TFISupportsThrivingFamilies

[The Family Initiative @TFIFamily]

Preventing parental burnout and enabling support organizations for these parents is essential to curb abuse!

“You don't have to be stuck. There's always a way out, even in the darkness.”

[The Family Initiative @TFIFamily]

Support can make a world of difference for a parent in a dark place and assistance can mean the difference between victimization and reintegration. We understand the importance of child safety and support for parents.
