Foster parents often feel tired and alone. Most families foster for less than a year, citing burnout and lack of support as the reason they stop. You can help provide encouragement for foster families needing a boost. Create a basket or package with items such as inspirational quotes to hang, family craft projects, gift cards, and tickets to local events. You can drop the basket off at TCC.

Help foster children and teens start the school year off right with brand new backpacks and new school supplies. These supplies are essential so they can be successful in school. We also need packed backpacks all year long. Children and youth usually enter foster care with no personal belongings and have nothing for school. Below is a list of supplies needed inside each backpack.

There are youth who become pregnant while in the foster care system. Very often the girls desire to parent their babies but lack the ability to easily access the basic items to care for their child. We have the great opportunity to come alongside these young girls, and sometimes their boyfriends, to encourage and support them as they become parents. This starts with baby showers where we provide all of the items they would need for their new baby. Simply by providing practical resources to these young mothers and empowering them to properly care for their new babies, we are helping to end the cycle that sends more children into the foster care system.
