Foster Parents Say...

I love to see the growth in the children and hear things like 'I don't have to hide in the closet any more'.  I can see their faces change from being scared to showing comfort and peace.

I like the teenagers because I like the challenge.  I have seen the changes in teens that other people thought were hopeless.  Being a foster parent gives me a chance to better the lives of children and make a difference.
