Did you know there are 513,000 American Children in foster care? These youth need stable, loving care until they can either safely reunite with their families or establish other lifelong relationships with a nurturing adult. May is National Foster Care Month. NO matter how much time you have to give, you have the opportunity to do something positive that will “Change a Lifetime” for a young person in foster care. For more information on foster care, visit http://www.fostercaremonth.org.
