Updated 21 days ago

We are a household that runs on shared meals, weekend bike rides, and a lot of laughing. Our door has always been open to extra kids at the table, and we are ready to make that permanent for a child who needs it.

Considerations

We have a young child in the home, so placements would need to be discussed with that in mind.We would want more information and training before supporting a child with significant sexualized behaviors.
