πŸ’™ June is PTSD Awareness Month πŸ’™

Trauma can affect anyone, and healing looks different for everyone. During PTSD Awareness Month, we recognize the importance of understanding post-traumatic stress disorder, reducing stigma, and encouraging those who may be struggling to seek support.

If you or someone you know is experiencing emotional distress, remember that help is available. You are not alone.

The Family Urgent Response System (FURS) is here 24/7 to provide immediate support for current and former foster youth and their caregivers. πŸ’™

Healing from mental health and substance use issues is not just the absence of symptoms. It is a stable home, meaningful connection, and the tools to move forward. That is the promise of whole-person care.

πŸ“° Read all about it! Governor Newsom has proclaimed May 2026 as Foster Care Month in California. πŸ’™

This proclamation recognizes the strength of children and youth in foster care, the dedication of foster families and caregivers, and the impact of programs and services that help young people thrive.

Over the last five years, California has seen a 32% decrease in the number of youth in foster care β€” a reflection of continued efforts to strengthen families, provide support, and create brighter futures for children and youth across the state.
