A pitch to pitch in this #NationalFosterCareMonth! Children that happen to have contact with the foster care system are a) #children and b) children equally deserving of care and support in a #family unit. Some need temporary support, others need more, but each of them in their own way contribute to the champions that partner with them. And there is something everyone can do to pitch in to the solution. In the abundance of our existence, it is a travesty that the brilliance of some children is dimmed through no fault of their own. Worst, the internalization of this neglect sometimes leads to cerebral and mental health degeneration that compounds over time. Ways to help one or more foster care children - 1. There are about 3.5 million households in LA County. About 30,000 children, plus or minus, in foster care, a fraction of them in search of adoption. Of the 3.5 million households, if you are a household that can provide a loving environment, consider learning more about adoption with an organization like Hillsides. 2. Adopting isn't the only way to help. Consider learning more about being a resource family for a foster care child that needs a temporary accommodation. 3. You can help in other ways, too. You can be part of all those success stories you see and hear about in the news! Can your work team or school sponsor a drive to gather new toiletries or coats or duffel bags that will go to an organization supporting foster care youth? Can your family or friend group commit to gathering $100 worth of pre-teen or teen related fun items (like board games, journals, gift cards) to offer a sense of normalcy during the holidays? Can you donate your hard-earned money to an organization like Hillsides toward the eventual success story of one of these children? Giving is one of the most fulfilling acts. However it is you have thought about pitching in, if you haven't or haven't in a while - I encourage you to get involved today! Learn more at hillsides.org/get-involved

Being a father is success in practice.

When fathers take care of the mothers, the whole family thrives. A supportive and loving partnership creates a harmonious home where children grow up happy and secure. Fathers can also: 1. Support your wife: Your support goes a long way in ensuring the household runs smoothly. 2. Share Responsibilities: Be an active participant in daily chores and child-rearing. 3. Show Appreciation: Regularly express gratitude and love towards the mothers. 4. Quality Time: Spend meaningful time with your partner and kids. 5. Communicate Openly: Maintain open lines of communication to foster a strong family bond. Dads, your role in nurturing this bond is invaluable. Let's build stronger families together! #SupportMothers #HappyFamilies #Fatherhood #StrongPartnerships #FamilyWellbeing #familyislife #fathers #mothers #value #familybond #responsibilty #communication #quality
