We believe all children are entitled to a safe and nurturing family experience and families choosing to provide such experiences deserve the respect and support of the community.

I was a foster parent for over 30 years. I am now the Region 2 coordinator for Families for Kids. My job is to support caregivers who have children in out of home care. I also support Adoptive , pre-adoptive parents and kinship providers. I attend any meeting that you feel you need someone to be with you. I believe caretakers need all the help they can get. I don't always have the answers , but will do my best to find out what you need to know.
