May is Foster Care Awareness Month, and being in foster care can be a traumatic experience for any child. You don’t have to be a foster parent, a CASA, or a volunteer to make a difference. Take a moment to find out how many kids are in care in your area and consider reaching out to a foster family to say thanks. Even just telling a friend or co-worker that you know how rough the situation can be for any child can make a difference. Let’s all be more aware and show our support for these children in need. #FosterCareAwarenessMonth #SupportFosterFamilies

❌ Myth: Every year the need for foster parents in Ohio decreases. ✅ Truth: Ohio currently has approximately 16,700 children in foster care, yet there are only 7,000 licensed foster homes to meet this need. The state of Ohio urgently needs foster parents every year. Youth in foster care in Ohio need the community’s support for reunification when possible, additional support for kinship caregivers, and commitment to growing foster care resources available in our state to give youth a safe place to land while their family heals.While numbers may fluctuate, the need for loving, nurturing, and flexible families to provide a home for youth in foster care is tremendous.

The foster care system can be difficult to navigate for both the children and foster parents involved. Many children raised within the system face internal struggles as they try to find stability, love and acceptance. If you were a foster child who had to move from home to home, it can be hard to feel secure. You may struggle with feelings of abandonment, low self-esteem and trust issues. The system needs improvement to better support these vulnerable youth. Let's raise awareness of the challenges foster youth endure. #fostercare #fosteryouth #fostercarematters
