Sunshine, teamwork, and fresh air! Last week, GJR in PA’s Greenhouse Garden Program celebrated the start of a new growing season with a fun afternoon outdoors. Staff and youth teamed up to prepare garden beds, using both manual tools and machinery to till the soil, mark out growing patches, and clear grass around the greenhouse. Everyone is excited to soon move our sprouting seedlings from the greenhouse into their new home in the garden 🌻

GJR in IN's Columbus office is getting a fresh look today thanks to Cummins Inc employee volunteers at United Way of Bartholomew Co’s Day of Caring! A dedicated group of 10 volunteers spent the morning helping GJR in IN staff move and build furniture, install conference screens, fix appliances, and more. As a community-based provider, having such a well-organized office makes a real difference for our youth and staff.
Special thanks to United Way for organizing this meaningful event and to Cummins for fostering a corporate culture of generosity through service. 🙌

Happy Mother’s Day! 💐

Today, we recognize the mothers, foster mothers, grandmothers, caregivers, mentors, and mother figures who show up with patience, love, guidance, and steady support.

For many of the youth and families we serve, care can come in many forms. We are grateful for every person who helps create a sense of safety, belonging, and encouragement in a young person’s life.

On May 7, Foster Success invited current and former George Junior Republic young adults and Independent Living Coordinator, Sydney Brewster, to participate in a discussion with Indiana Congresswoman Erin Houchin at Ivy Tech Community College to share the impact Chafee-funded programs have had on their lives as young adults with lived experience in foster care.

The meeting focused on the importance of continued support services for youth transitioning out of foster care and provided an opportunity for meaningful discussion surrounding several pieces of federal legislation impacting foster youth across the country.

Special thanks to Congresswoman Houchin for her leadership and commitment to supporting foster youth and to Foster Success for coordinating this important conversation.
