The sense of community at Progress is further reinforced by the regular support group meetings for our foster carers. Amanda finds these meetings incredibly beneficial: "I find it really insightful. It's great to hear from other foster carers, to get ideas on how you might overcome an obstacle, and to share and celebrate successes."

Did you know that children who have spent time in foster care are 3.5x more likely to experience PTSD like that of a war veteran? Placement stability is an integeral part of helping mitigate the affects of trauma children in the foster care system experience. Once healthy stability is achieved, children can begin the process of learning how to form healthy trust-based attachements. This is vital to their healing journey. Keeping sibling groups together, whenever possible, is a monumental part of lessening the overal impact that the trauma of removal can cause for a child. Think about it, even if a child is in a desperate situation and removal is a necessary, they are still being ripped away from all that is familiar to them. For children, routine and control are two extremely important components for healthy development. When children are able to enter into the unknown space of the Child Welfare System and navigate it with their sibling, the trauma that comes with removal can have less severe lasting affects. They have eachother and intimate connection and that gives them a sense of control and safety. I am so excited to see that Christian Bale has discovered this reality and has a passion to help make it possible for siblings to remain together during foster care placement.
Shoutout to Christian Bale! After 16 years, he finally broke ground on a project close to his heart: building homes and a community center for foster siblings to stay together. Thank you for your unwavering commitment to creating a brighter future for these children! 📹: The Associated Press

Absolutely no person should be ‘recruited’ into a system where their role isn’t valued or defined. Nobody should be expected to do the impossible - raise extremely traumatised children with little to no support or tools to do so. It’s time to invest in our current carers. Provide the support. Pay them accordingly. Give them access to training that they want to complete with a budget for carer development that is in line with professional development of case workers. Treat carers with the respect that you would give to a colleague in the workplace. Stop recruiting and start retaining!
Caught up with ultramarathon runner Pat Farmer today, thought I’d better do some training beforehand 🏃♀️😅 We talked about the desperate need for more foster carers with Hatch Carers, especially ways we can support and recruit carers better.
