You can apply to be a CASA volunteer on our website ❤️ these kiddos need someone advocating for their best interests and safety in courtKids in foster care aren’t just cases. They’re not files or numbers. They’re not a name on a whiteboard in a county office.
They’re whole people. They’re fragile. They’re hurting. They’re hopeful. They’re carrying stories no one ever asked to hear. But those stories matter. They need to be heard.
I wish the system understood. Trauma isn’t something you check off a list. Progress isn’t neat or pretty or fast. You can’t schedule healing. You can’t rush trust. You can’t slap a goal on love and expect it to stick.
These kids need more than a roof. More than a plan. They need people who show up and stay. People who fight with them, not just for them. People who see past the behaviors and the shutdowns and the pushback.
Because guess what. Kids know when they’re being shuffled around like a problem no one wants to deal with. They know when adults make decisions without asking what they want. They remember the broken promises. They carry the weight of it.
Healing doesn’t happen on a timeline. It takes years sometimes. And that kind of patience is hard to find in a system drowning in paperwork and pressure.
But that doesn’t make it less necessary.
These kids deserve better. They deserve a system that listens before it moves. That puts their safety and mental health above checkboxes and reunification quotas. That doesn’t forget they are human.
Because this isn’t about case plans or court dates or closing files. It’s about the kids. And I wish the system remembered that every single day. ... See MoreSee Less
Update: we have received two units for this family and they are beyond thankful!
Hey Gibson County! It’s hot out 🔥
We are working with a family in which dad has his 3 children. He works during the day but has had a lot of expenses getting the items the kids needed to be in his home. They are in desperate need of at least one window AC unit, as the home is in the upper 80s during the day. If anyone has a used unit they would like to donate, this dad and children would greatly appreciate it 💙 ... See MoreSee Less
Kids don’t want to be in the way they want to be included.
They want to stir the bowl, press the buttons, carry the bag. They want to “help” fold laundry and follow you room to room. It might seem small to you, but to them, it’s everything.
So hold them while you do things. Let them try. Show them how. Because they don’t just want to watch life happen they want to be part of it. ... See MoreSee Less
