Please take this quick poll to let us know what you would like us to prioritize during the 2019 Legislative Session in Washington State. The Fostering Change team has been busy working with statewide leaders and state representatives about current issues within the child welfare system. And guess what? We’ve been invited to present at the Kids Caucus during the upcoming legislative session. We are incredibly honored to share the voice of foster parents and educate our state leaders on topics like trauma, attachment and permanency for children in care. This is an amazing opportunity and we need your input! Thank you for participating!
