Amber Jones and Andrea Furaitar join in to talk about the power of fostering.

We continue to discuss Foster Care Awareness Month, today talking with Amber Jones and Andrea Furaitar about the topic of foster parenting on behalf of DA Blodgett/St Johns, and what kids in foster care really need from you. A reminder, you don't have to be a perfect parent to be a foster parent. The process of fostering is discussed.
