As Foster Care Awareness Month comes to a close, we are bringing it home with a local statistic that should make you pause. If you are a Barrow resident, think about these 61 children. How many classrooms would that fill up? Now consider that there are not enough homes for those children…that means there are children placed outside of Barrow. This means they could be placed further away in other counties - away from friends, family, their school.
If you have ever wanted to talk to someone about what you could do to open your home, we would love to help you!
