Episode # 259 - Fostering Well With Christine Robinson

“Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth.” 1 John 3:18

 

Fifty percent of newly certified foster parents resign from fostering after the first year. For many, caring for traumatized children is daunting, isolating, and heartbreaking. However, those who receive support from the community around them tend to thrive, as do the kids placed in their homes.

 

Foster Well is a Delaware based nonprofit working to connect the foster care community with those who want to love and support them. On this week’s Orphans No More podcast episode, we talk with Foster Well founder, Christine Robinson. Listen in as Christine shares practical ways volunteers can help a foster family to foster well.

 

Host Sandra Flach also shares two more Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder facts from FAFASD.org. FASD discussion bookends the guest interview. So be sure to listen to the end.
