Just about every Monday, I feature children who are waiting to be adopted through the foster care program. Each child has been approved by the heart galleries that host them to appear on my blog. Not every heart gallery from every state has given us permission to post their waiting children (some we can only link to, some we can use photos and some change their minds constantly about whether or not we are allowed to help in their outreach efforts) ?we are working on that. Brenda of Another Small Adventure really does all the work on this. She knows foster care waaay better than I do and I am grateful for all her help.

Here in Utah there has been much talk and many news articles recently about the need for foster/resource families who are willing to take in teens.?This article emphasizes the need that exists and illustrates the truth ?kids don?t ask to be placed in foster care but when a loving family takes them home and loves them as their own the child is given a solid foundation to grow.
I am sure the need for families that will take teens isn?t just a Utah thing.?? If you are interested and you live outside of Utah contact your local Department of Child and Family Services?(some states call it something slightly different).?
