Families are the foundation of society. When we care for and protect children, we ensure that future generations thrive as well. As veteran foster parents, my husband and I have seen the devastation that abuse and neglect cause. These atrocities solidify our resolve to help the foster children placed in our home to heal and feel loved. Our goal is to develop their God-given talents, help them move past the role of endless victimization, and encourage their momentum as they work toward becoming contributing members of society.

If you are thinking about becoming a foster parent, if the foster-care system intrigues you, or if you want to learn how you can make a positive impact on foster children in your community, this book will inspire you to begin a journey in which you can make a lasting difference in the lives of some of the most vulnerable among us.
