Please give voice to children.

You may have heard the old saying about children, "they should be seen and not heard." Did you know that there are children in our midst that are often NOT seen and NOT heard? Children from hard places feel like they suffer in silence, unseen.

In November of 2019, I was appointed to the Governor's Advisory Council on Foster Care. Part of our task is to spread the word about seven forums across the state of Ohio in December 2019 and January 2020 to give voice to the needs of children in the foster care system.

Would you take a few moments and help us give these stories a chance to be heard? If you have had any connection to the foster care system and have experience to share that would help us form recommendations please use this link to share.

You may attend a forum or send in written comments. If you know of someone who should give input please use the link below to share this email with them.

FOSTER CARE FORUMS

We know there are many ways you give to help children in foster care: your time, your talents, your prayers, and your finances. Please give your voice and respond or share with other who can help give voice to children from hard places.
