🌟 Get to Know Our Staff: Stacey Kelly 🌟

This week we're spotlighting Stacey Kelly, one of our amazing Foster Care Specialists!

Originally from Pennsylvania, Stacey brings compassion, dedication, and a genuine heart for helping children and families. She is passionate about supporting foster families and is known for going above and beyond to ensure children have the resources, encouragement, and advocacy they need to thrive.

Outside of work, Stacey is the proud mom of 12-year-old twin girls who keep life fun and busy! She also shares her home with two unique pets—Goldie, her ball python 🐍, and Kiwi, her pineapple green-cheek conure 🦜. As if that doesn't keep her busy enough, Stacey is also looking forward to an exciting new chapter as she prepares for her upcoming wedding! 💍❤️

Whether she's supporting foster families, cheering on her daughters, or caring for her pets, Stacey brings the same kindness, commitment, and positive energy to everything she does.

We're grateful to have Stacey on our team and appreciate the difference she makes in the lives of children and families every day. ❤️

💙 Foster Parent Spotlight 💙

“One of the most rewarding parts of fostering has been watching the children grow—not only in school, but emotionally and mentally. Seeing them thrive in a safe place is everything.” – Kamrie

Kamrie and AJ are dedicated foster parents partnering with Epworth Family Resources to provide a loving, stable home for children in need. Every day, foster families like theirs make a lasting difference by offering safety, encouragement, and hope during some of the most challenging times in a child's life.

They credit Epworth for walking beside them through every step of their fostering journey, offering guidance, resources, clothing for children who arrived with very little, respite care when needed, and ongoing support.

“It feels good to know we have someone to call anytime,” AJ shares.

Thank you, Kamrie and AJ, for opening your hearts and home and for helping children discover that they are valued, supported, and capable of thriving. ❤️

If you've ever considered becoming a foster parent, Epworth Family Resources would love to talk with you about how you can make a difference in a child's life.
