The recent Kansas foster care compliance report has highlighted significant concerns regarding the 'sleep-only' placement of children, raising alarms among legislators who see a gap between expectations and reality. This situation stresses the urgent need for reform in our foster care system to ensure the well-being of every child in our care. Together, we can push for accountability and changes that prioritize compassionate and effective support for these vulnerable kids. Learn more about this pressing issue at https://okt.to/hfdqvM.

There are plenty of myths out there about foster care, but we're here to set the record straight. The best foster carers are those who can provide a safe and supportive home, and they're just as diverse as the children and young people in out-of-home-care. Are there more foster care myths that you'd like us to debunk? Let us know in the comments.👇 Learn more about who can become a foster care with us via the link 🔗 https://lnkd.in/gWNdzDJj #FosterCare #CARE #ChallengeCommunityServices

A literal national crisis that requires immediate intervention on behalf of the children & families: #nationalchildabusepreventionmonth PLEASE, READ, LIKE & SHARE:
Senator Ossof's report on Georgia's foster care safety has been released and it is damning. The problem is there are 49 other states with equal to worse facts about the atrocities happening to children while in state care. We have yet to talk about how 80% of children in foster care have no business there! It was the unconstitutional Judges, Social workers who lie, the appointed attorneys failing to protect them and their families for federal funding incentives that made this all possible.

Foster carer feedback on our services: "FosterWiki has been a lifeline for me in supporting my child. It validates me as a foster carer and makes me feel respected. What I love the most is how relatable it is, knowing it's created by people from our own community" "Every single page on FosterWiki has been invaluable for my CPD, more so than anything else in all honesty.. It's so easy to access the information I need – whether I'm searching, or just browsing (which I love to do!) the pages speak to me as a foster carer. The way the content relates to my everyday practice is amazing." "Honestly if you really want to be a Foster Carer you will do it come hell or high water we did.... However if we did not have the Foster Wiki guidelines then we would not be here now." Contact us to see how you can give your foster carers the support they would chose: https://lnkd.in/eu8S9cHc #fostercarers #value #recognition #retention #placementstability

If you're curious about what it's like to go into foster care, my experience can be summed up perfectly in this video ⬇️ Check it out to gain a deeper understanding of the realities of the foster care system. Do we really understand what it’s like? Like REALLY understand? Think of your biggest fear… how would you react if that fear was in your face every day? Are we compassionate enough? Do we lack empathy at times? Do we get it? I’m not sure we do! #FosterCare #YouthPerspective #RealitiesOfFosterCare
