Calling all volunteers!!!!

It's been a good 2012 so far, as our Family Finding program is rapidly growing! However, with such quick expansion, we are finding ourselves stretched rather thin because of our lack of available volunteers.  Our wonderful volunteers provide us with the tools and assistance we need to connect children with loved ones, but people of compassion often find themselves busy with many things.  If you are ready and willing to volunteer with a great organization, gain some experience in the realm of child welfare, and help a kiddo in need please go to our website, www.afamilyforeverychild.org, and fill out a volunteer application, or email me at caitlin@afamilyforeverychil.org for more information!  I look forward to hearing from all of you fabulous people!

"Family Finding" for Every Child!

The month of February is off to a great start: our Family Finding program is working to reconnect children with lost loved ones in Lane County, and we're trying to expand our reach! We are ready to take on more cases and help more foster children through Family Finding.  If you know of any social workers, foster children, CASAs, or any advocates for foster children (that's you!) spread the word about Family Finding and the benefits it provides for foster kiddos!
