Help us welcome our newest Foster Parents: Daniel & Erin🥳🥳

Here is what they had to say about their choice to become foster parents:
"We wanted to become foster parents because we are hoping to expand our family one day. When Erin was growing up she spent a lot of time in Mexico and her friends were children from a children’s home. She saw how much the kids desperately needed a stable and loving family. When Erin was as young as 14 years old, there were younger kids at the children’s home who would call her mama because they latched on to anyone who would be kind and loving towards them. Now that she's an adult, she feels like she can finally provide the kind of care that she wished she could when she was younger."💚💙

Daniel & Erin are open to fostering up to two kiddos under the age of 3.

Their family loves to hike and travel! Most weekends they are exploring new parks. 💙

CONGRATULATIONS on officially becoming licensed foster parents & joining the CHOICES family💚

We have this saying here at CHOICES, "Once an IL youth, always an IL youth." For all past and present independent living specialists who continue to "be the person" for so many of our kids....WE SEE YOU!!

This pandemic has been hard for everyone. Especially the youth we serve and who have since left our program. We can't say enough about our team who continues to link to resources, support, encourage and listen to our kids even when their service time ends.

We recently were able to re-enroll over 20 youth into our bridges program because of this new funding. It's been crazy, but our Bridges team is hustling because they know how important the program is for our young people!

Help us welcome our newest Foster Parents: Anthony & Angela🥳🥳

Here is what they had to say about their choice to become foster parents:
"We had been hearing so much about how there is a big need for foster parents, especially now. We didn't know much about it at first but the more we learned, the more we wanted to help. We have a lot of love to share and thought, if there are kids out there who need safe homes, how can we not help?"💚💙

Angela & Anthony are open to fostering 4-5 kiddos ages 0-10 years old‼

Their family enoys having movie nights, going out to dinner at their favorite restaurant, Los Cabos, and riding their horses on trails. They also like camping, sports, swimming during the summer, and karaoke in their basement! 💙

CONGRATULATIONS on officially becoming licensed foster parents & joining the CHOICES family💚
