Foster Care: Honest Conversations, Open Hearts 💛

Week two of our Foster Care Awareness Month FAQ series. And this is one of the questions we hear often — but it’s not always easy to ask: Can I foster if my spouse/partner isn't on board? Or how will fostering impact our marriage/ relationship?

Foster care brings new stress, shifting routines, and challenges that require patience and communication. That’s why fostering works best as a team 🤝

It takes an “all hands on deck” approach to support a child who has experienced trauma and navigate the foster care system. Couples who commit together — to listening, respecting boundaries, and communicating well — often find their relationship grows stronger through it.

If you’re not on the same page yet, it’s okay to wait. Take time to learn, ask questions, and seek support. And if fostering isn’t the right step right now, there are still meaningful ways to show up for children and families in need 💛

May is Foster Care Awareness Month — a time to reflect on the realities children and families face, and how we’re called to respond with compassion and faith.

This is a shortened version of Week 2 from Thornwell's Foster Care Bible Study. This week invites us to hold two things at once: the brokenness in our world — and the beauty of God at work within it. Serving children and families can be hard, and at times exhausting. But it gives us glimpses of healing, hope, and restoration - in our own lives, our homes, and in our community.

As you reflect, consider where you see both beauty and brokenness — in your own life, your community, and the world around you. And ask: what might God be inviting me into in this season?

If something here stirs your heart, our Thornwell Foster Care Team would love to connect with you. We’re here to help you explore ways to serve, answer questions, and walk alongside you every step of the way. 🤝

When children enter foster care, so much is uncertain.

At Thornwell, we believe sibling connections are worth fighting for - a constant in the chaos. Sibling bonds matter and foster parents can make connection possible - even when they can't live under one roof 🤝

✨ You can be part of that story.
✨ You can help keep families connected.

Read the blog to see how lives are being changed when foster parents work as a team to keep siblings connected — and how you can make a difference.

Foster Care: Honest Conversations, Open Hearts 💛

Week one (part three) of our Foster Care Awareness Month FAQ series. Another question we hear often is: *Can I foster if I work full time?*

The answer is yes — absolutely. Foster parents come from all kinds of work and schooling situations: full-time, part-time, work-from-home, single parents, and dual-income households. All are welcome.

What matters most is not your job status, but your flexibility, preparation, and support system. Foster care will require coordination, backup plans, and a community you can lean on when schedules shift or needs arise 🤝

Children in foster care attend school or childcare just like other children, and there are supports available to help families manage those needs.

If you’re considering fostering while working, we encourage you to think through your capacity, build your support network, and make a solid childcare plan before a child ever enters your home. 💛 And if you’re unsure, there are also ways to start small — like respite or short-term care — as you discern what works best for your family.
