Fosterful

Launched in june 2023, sidekicks, is where volunteers and staff are paired one to one with a child experiencing foster care. We coordinate with the foster caregivers to serve the child on a recurring basis, dedicating 6 to 10 hours per month for each child. Often referred by it's clinical name as case aides, our sidekicks provide respite and support when and where it's needed most: in everyday moments at the home or out in the community. Sidekicks provide transportation and supervision so children can participate in sports, therapeutic services, daycare and various fun outings. The program has been well received by the foster care community and the demand for more staff and volunteers to serve the children has us continually recruiting and training to answer the growing needs.
