Our youth had a wonderful time at the cookout by the pool, all thanks to their day off from school for Columbus Day! They enjoyed swimming and feasting on hot dogs and hamburgers. Everyone had a great time playing games in the water and splashing around with friends!

October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month. Domestic violence isn’t always visible - it can be physical, emotional, psychological, or financial, and often happens behind closed doors. Many children are in foster care because they witnessed or experienced this trauma in their biological home. At Residing Hope, we know that safety is more than a word, it’s a daily need and a fragile hope for these kids. This Domestic Violence Awareness Month, let’s stand together to support children and survivors. Interested in becoming a foster parent?
