President Joe Biden Proclaims May 2021, as National Foster Care Month Published: Sunday, 02 May 2021 05:55
May 2, 2021 - On Friday, President Joe Biden proclaimed May 2021, as National Foster Care Month.
Every child deserves to grow up in a supportive, loving home where they can thrive and prosper. During those unfortunate times when children cannot remain
safely in their own homes, the individuals and families who open their hearts and homes to foster children provide a vital service to their communities. During this National Foster Care Month, we share our gratitude for those who support youth and families by being a resource to children in need and supporting birth parents so that they may safely reunite with their families whenever possible. We also recognize that it takes collaboration and community effort from local organizations to Federal agencies to support children, birth parents, and resource and kin families during challenging times.

Traci Anderson always knew the family she d one day have would not be grown completely through biology, but that adoption would be intertwined into her family’s story. She admits that when she was a young child herself, she didn’t really understand how it actually happened, but she really loved the idea that a family didn’t have to match. Looking back now, she thinks she just wanted more siblings, since hers were 7 and 9 years older than she was. Plus, she had a friend whose family fostered children and another friend who was adopted, so she said she knew a little bit about what the word adoption meant.
