National Foster Care Month is a time to recognize the role that each of us can play in enhancing the lives of children and youth in foster care. We acknowledge foster parents, family members, volunteers, mentors, child welfare professionals, and other members of the community who work to strengthen families in order for children to remain or return safely home or find loving, adoptive families. Every child deserves a bright future, and we celebrate all those who make a meaningful difference in their lives.
