May Is National Foster Care Awareness Month

The official graphic for the National Foster Care Awareness Month campaign.

This month, all over the country, different foster care agencies celebrate and honor foster parents, but there is a larger goal: to motivate more Americans to step up and help the over 400,000 children in foster care.

There is always a need for more foster parents, especially since many foster parents adopt the children placed in their home if they are unable to return to birth parents. This means agencies are losing beds in which to place future foster children.

If you have ever considered fostering, May is the perfect month to check it out. See what advice those who are already fostering want those considering foster parenting to know? Don't want to give advice? Share your feelings - What does foster parenting mean to you?
