Foster Coalition

Foster Coalition Uniting Communities - Celebrating Families We understand how it feels not to have the proper resources and training you need to raise your foster children.

We also know how it feels as an organization to be spinning your wheels without a way to reach those you want to serve. Foster Coalition bridges that gap - we bring foster organizations and families together. We connect local agencies, organizations and volunteers with vital resources, specialized training, continuing education, and network conferences. We assist church leadership with Foster Care

Ministry Teams to recruit foster parents, mentors and volunteers. We work with local and state hubs to ensure that consistent training and education are available to all foster advocates. If your church has a foster family ministry, we'd love to hear from you. If you think your church would be interested in starting a foster family ministry, please let us know. We have the tools and would love to help you get started! This program is made possible by funding through the Alabama Department of Child Abuse and Neglect Prevention.

🏡Foster care is often surrounded by misconceptions and false narratives, but the truth comes from education, research, and listening to real experiences within the community. Behind the stigma are stories and resilience and hope. Foster children are worth every effort to protect and care for them and you do not have to do it alone.

Let's break the stereotypes, spread awareness, and shine a light on the reality of foster care. 🩵

👏Recently, we had the opportunity to collaborate with Thompson Intermediate. Their student council representatives and PTO put together a service project where they gathered all of their lost and found items and got them washed and bagged, ready for donation. We were invited to share with the students about how their donations will help the foster community and why it is so important for children transitioning into foster care to have necessities and something to keep their belongings in.

💙Thanks to the effort of Grace and That One Lamb, the donations will help make an impact in Tuscaloosa and the surrounding area!

🧠 Mental Health Awareness Month 🧠

Mental health challenges affect millions of people every day, and no one’s journey looks the same. Many factors can impact a person’s mental well-being.

Awareness starts with education, compassion, and conversation. Take time to learn about mental health, explore available resources, support those who may be struggling, and help break the stigma surrounding it. Sometimes the most important first step is simply talking about it. 💙

🎙️Sexual Assault Awareness🎙️

This episode, your host, Taylor, talks with guest, Baylor Padgett about their experiences with sexual assault and how they have healed through their journey since then. This is a sensitive episode, but a necessary one, as survivors deserve to be advocated for and their stories be brought awareness. We hope you learn something from this episode, and find a sense of hope that there is a way to heal from whatever hand you have been dealt. You are strong and worthy.
