The Sanders family reminds us that foster care is rooted in compassion. 💛

The Sanders family cares deeply about healing whole families, both kids and their biological parents, for the long-run. Because of this, they often build strong relationships with biological parents of their foster children. Recently, one of the Sander's sibling groups went home to be reunited with their mother, right before the youngest child's birthday. Instead of parting ways, the Sander's invited the children and their mom back into their home for a birthday celebration, continuing their support and care of the family even after they left.

We celebrate this story, because foster care is not about replacing families, it’s about supporting them, encouraging them, and creating life-long relationships along the way.

Sometimes foster care looks like weekly drives, meeting halfway, and cheering for a family’s healing. 🚗💛

One example of this is the Smith family. The Smiths work on a weekly basis with the biological mom of their foster children to help maintain connection and support their reunification. Through every visit, every handoff, and every hard moment, the Smiths advocate not only for the children in their home, but for their biological mother too.

This is what foster care can look like: compassion, consistency, and working together for the good of a child.
