The second issue is the lack of foster homes for children in need. Between 500,000 and 600,000 children are estimated to be in foster homes. Consider the previous fact that nearly six
million
children per year are abused or neglected. There is a serious lack of safe havens available for children in need. Many children live in group homes instead of a warm, nurturing home. If you are able, please consider opening your home to a child. A simple gesture of love and kindness can change a child’s life and attitude forever. If you are interested in learning more about becoming a foster parent, contact your local or state Child Welfare office or the Department of Family Services. As the departments and phone numbers vary by state, I am unable to give you any specific information. A simple Internet search will give you all the information you need.
As always, it’s been a pleasure. Take care of yourselves and your loved ones. Until next time…
All my love,
Kristin
