@FosterChangeNH @Juli_Oates No one blog post can cover the whole spectrum. I would encourage you to read more posts on the site before drawing conclusions. You’ll find ones on bio families that are drawn from our deeply personal experiences that we are actually walking through right now.
@_jasonjohnson @FosterChangeNH I like the other group they mentioned, but as both an ex foster child and foster parent I find very little support for bio families kept whole over ramming kids into adoption. It is worrisome to me that adoption has become a big business at the expense of families. Glad you help.
@Juli_Oates @FosterChangeNH Agreed. There’s a place for encouraging foster families who are caring for kids and a place for doing whatever we can to get them home. Sometimes that’s possible, in the ideal. Sometimes it’s not. All parties involved need the support necessary to do what’s best for kids.
@_jasonjohnson @FosterChangeNH The magic words “ best for the child” thank you.
Great to speak with members of @SCActionNetwork last night at the forum about the incredible work they're doing advocating for early childhood education in our community - thanks for everything you do! #nh01 #nhpolitics

Jesse’s message was more than just words to his mom: "It was a message of comfort for his family and friends, but it was also an inspiration for the world. It's really where we need to turn in order to survive and to thrive,” Lewis said. wmur.com/article/mother…
@FosterChangeNH Thanks for sharing our page. We do everything we can to prevent child abuse and kids entering the system, from counseling to Crisis Nursery operations, and also 3 family resource centers that provide tons of services/classes. + services if they do enter..
@ChronicleSC Children will be the winners if they can be identified with a qualified well trained and supported foster or kinship family. Group care providers that take young children may go out of business if they are not able to adapt to the new laws and requirements. #FamilyFirstChat

Family homelessness is on the rise in NH. To keep our state a great place to live, work, and raise a family, we need to be supporting children and families with wraparound services including quality early childhood development opportunities. @Spark_NH ow.ly/qiS530h9evQ
