Nearly 7,000 Kansas children and teens are in foster care, and you can change a child’s life by becoming a foster parent! Fostering provides a child who has experienced abuse or neglect with a safe, loving environment. On top of this, it gives you the opportunity to show a child the love and care they deserve while growing emotionally, mentally and spiritually as you teach life skills and give support. You will experience joy and may even discover a greater sense of purpose in your life.

 Brandy Bartlett, Community Resource Specialist, will share an overview of foster care, how it works and 4 impactful ways to help though foster parenting, volunteering, donating and advocating.
