Foster the Cause and Saint Francis Ministries have partnered once again to bring another great annual conference to Western Kansas!
Janeen Cox and Kristy Opat are excited to welcome foster and adoptive families from across the state and provide valuable resources, encouragement, and support to the incredible families who serve children in our communities.
This conference is open to all foster homes from every agency across Kansas, as well as anyone interested in supporting the important work we do for our community’s children.
As foster parents, we serve day in and day out, in countless ways, "...in faith." We know that this calling can sometimes feel isolating. There are moments when it may seem like we are on an island, trying to navigate challenges and find answers on our own. Resources and support are available, but they can sometimes be difficult to find—especially when you don't even know what resources exist or where to begin looking.
That is the focus of this year's conference: RESOURCES.
Our hope is that every foster and adoptive parent leaves the conference feeling encouraged, supported, and equipped with a better understanding of the resources available to them—and, just as importantly, how to find and access those resources when they are needed.
We have an exciting day planned with great speakers, helpful resources, meaningful activities, and opportunities to connect with others who understand the journey of fostering and adoption.
You don't have to navigate this journey alone. Come connect, learn, be encouraged, and discover the resources available to help you continue making a difference in the lives of children and families.
We hope you'll join us this year on November 7th! Registration is Open!
Join us for a foster/adoptive/kinship caregiver conference. A day of encouragement, connection and learning.
