Sharing the stories of the foster care community, this is The Forgotten podcast.

Just don't be afraid to reach out and ask for help.

If you're not getting it from the immediate people around you, then, you know, keep reaching out until you're surrounded by the right people that can get you the help that you need.

Hello. the right people that can get you the help that you need. Hello and welcome back to the Forgotten Podcast.

I'm your host, Jamie Cabe, and I am very excited to have you with me here today.

May is National Foster Care Month.

So every week this month, we will be highlighting stories from

each perspective of the foster care community. That's agency workers, foster parents, vulnerable

adults, and children. Every member of the foster care community matters, and everyone has a story

to tell.

Here at TFI, we equip churches across the country to make the foster care community known.

One of the main ways we do this is by helping you launch and lead a thriving foster care ministry right where you live.

These ministries connect churches and agencies

so that the church can help meet physical, relational, and spiritual needs in the foster care

community. And the foster care community can give perspective and opportunities to serve to the church.

We need each other. And I would love for you to join us on this mission.

Right now, during the month of May, applications to become a TFI advocate are open.

Now, this only happens twice a year, and there are only a few spots available.

So if you want to encourage your local foster care agencies and help churches become more aware of foster care, then you should apply.
