Foster and Adoption in Austin
First UU Social Action Council is hosting an information session with Madison Pittman and Yaiika Fernandez, Foster Home Development Specialists from Austin’s SAFE Alliance (Stop Abuse for Everyone), on Sunday, October 20th at 12:30 p.m. in room 13.
Madison and Yaiika will be discussing the need for more foster, adoptive, and kinship parents, along with what people can do to support our current parents in the program if they don’t want to foster or adopt. They will be going over what is needed to become a foster or adoptive parent and provide information about the program (what they do, the process, restrictions, etc).
Safe Alliance is the whole organization with 30+ programs in it, and their program, “Foster and Adopt in Austin,” is just a small part of it. Madison and Yaiika will also briefly go over other programs within Safe Alliance such as their Volunteer program and Safe-Line, and what those do in case anyone needs any of their resources.
