About this episode
The episode discusses the importance of finding stable foster homes for youth in western Connecticut, featuring insights from a senior recruiter at Wheeler's Foster Care Programs.
One of our goals is to help find loving stable places for the thousands of young people across western Connecticut currently waiting to relocate into foster home situations. So, if you think being a foster parent or caregiver is not a skillset you possess, our conversation with the senior foster care recruiter at Wheeler's Foster Care Programs could be pretty enlightening.
