Volunteer to support a Foster Care Family in Dallas, Paulding County.
Descripción
Descripción
Atlanta Angels knows that not everyone is called to foster or adopt, but everyone can make a difference in the life of a child. There are several ways you can make a difference. We have the Love Box program, where we match a foster family with a volunteer in their community who is committed to building a relationship and showing consistently. The Love Box program provides fostering families (caregivers, children in foster care, and biological/adopted children) with community and holistic support. As a Love Box group, you will be matched with a local foster family based on location, compatibility, and scope of needs. When our families are matched with committed volunteers who show up monthly, parents feel supported and children gain a greater sense of normalcy, relational permanency, and self confidence.
This program requires a one-year commitment, with meetings at least once a month with your family.
We are currently seeking specific volunteers to be matched with a family on our waitlist! We are specifically looking for volunteers in or around the Dallas area for family number #44. This single foster mama is a middle school special ed science teacher who has been fostering for 16 years. She has 4 of a sibling set of 8 in her home (12 y/o, 11 y/o, 7y/o, 1 y/o) for about 2 years, and they have great bonds with this caregiver. The caregiver’s elderly mother also lives with her. Both she and her kiddos need lots of emotional support because they are about to experience a major transition related to the kiddos’ case plan. Someone who can wrap around the family with lots of love, understanding, and emotional validation would be amazing!
The first step in the volunteer process is to attend a virtual Discovery Session. You can learn more or sign up here. If you have any questions, you can email volunteer@atlantaangels.org or visit our website. If you are in or near Cobb County and interested in supporting a local family, please reach out!
