For more than 30 years, one couple opened their home again and again to children who needed safety, stability, and love.

Their story is a powerful reminder that fostering isn’t about perfection. It’s about showing up. Creating space. Helping a child feel safe enough to trust again.

This Foster Care Awareness Month, we honor families like these and the everyday impact they make. Because sometimes the smallest moments, a laugh, a hug, a sense of belonging, can change everything.

National Youth Advocate Program, Inc. is proud to partner with Cultivate Food Rescue in South Bend, Indiana to expand access to nutritious meals for children and youth involved in foster, kinship, and relative care. Through this collaboration, families can receive high quality, ready to eat meals, helping ease financial pressure on caregivers while supporting stability and well being for young people during critical transitions.

This initiative not only nourishes families but also strengthens connections to culture, community, and support systems, helping reduce the trauma of separation and promote successful reunification. Meals will also support foster families as they welcome new youth and will be integrated into NYAP’s broader prevention and family support programs.

Today, we celebrate all mothers including biological mothers, adoptive mothers, foster mothers, stepmothers, grandmothers, aunts, mentors, caregivers, and every woman who steps in with love, guidance, and compassion when it is needed most.

Your strength, sacrifice, encouragement, and care help children and families feel seen, supported, and valued. Whether connected by birth, choice, or circumstance, the impact of your love lasts a lifetime.

Thank you for the countless ways you nurture hope, build resilience, and create safe spaces where children can grow and thrive. Today and every day, we honor and appreciate you.

Wishing you a joyful and love filled Mother’s Day.

Today, we pause to recognize the incredible foster parents who open their hearts and homes to children and youth during some of the most difficult moments of their lives.

Foster parenting is not easy. It takes patience, compassion, flexibility, advocacy, and an unwavering commitment to helping children feel safe, supported, and valued. Behind every late-night conversation, school meeting, therapy appointment, court date, and bedtime routine is a foster parent choosing, day after day, to show up with love and care.

We are deeply grateful for the foster parents who stand beside children and families with strength and grace. You help provide stability during uncertainty, comfort during fear, and hope during healing.

Because of you, children have safe places to land while families work toward reunification and stability. Because of you, youth are reminded that they matter.

Thank you for opening your homes, sharing your hearts, and making a lasting difference in the lives of children and families across our communities.

You are appreciated more than words can express.

Childhood depression can deeply affect a child’s emotional, physical, and social well being. When left unaddressed, it can impact learning, relationships, and long term health, but with the right support, children can heal and thrive.

At NYAP, our Behavioral Health services provide compassionate, trauma informed care for children, youth, and families. Early intervention and access to mental health support can make a meaningful difference.

Learn more about NYAP’s Behavioral Health services at nyap.org/bh or Dial 211 to access services for your child.

Our NYAP South Bend, Indiana team had such a wonderful time volunteering at Cultivate Food Rescue.

Being able to come together, roll up their sleeves, and serve side by side made it even more meaningful knowing these meals are impacting families in the community.

Cultivate Food Rescue rescues surplus food and transforms it into nutritious, ready to eat meals that are provided free to children, youth and families in Northern Indiana, helping reduce both food waste and food insecurity across the region.

Moments like this are about partnering with other organizations doing meaningful work to impact youth and families. We’re grateful to be part of a community that shows up, works together, and cares deeply.
