Join us in congratulating our 15 newly certified child welfare professionals! These graduates just completed our 12-week Pre-Service Training to join the ranks of child welfare to protect and strengthen children and families in Polk, Highlands and Hardee Counties!
A BIG thank you to our long-standing Rudolph Champions Polk County HOG (Harley Owners Group) for helping us kick-off our Rudolph in July by rounding up over $500 worth of toys and making a generous financial donation for our children and teens in foster care! This fantastic group is already working on rounding up more toys to drop off in December!
Ashley Beckwith was a constant source of information and support during the two years and five months of our adoption journey. My husband and I completed the Adoption 101 (now MAPS) class in 2012. Ashley stayed in touch and available to us through the adoption newsletter and checking in via email. She was present at match meetings and adoption events. We finalized our adoption a month ago. I am finally a mother and I feel so thankful and blessed to have been able to work with Ashley through this process. Ashley, you are so dedicated and positive. It was a pleasure to work with you.
