For Our Town Gilbert Quarterly Breakfast - Nov 5

It Takes a Village: Supporting Foster Families & Youth in Gilbert

It takes a village to support children and families, and there is a role for all of us. Join For Our Town Gilbert for a community conversation about how we can better support children and youth in foster care and the families who care for them.

Hear from local foster parents, a caseworker, CASA and community mentors about their experiences, what foster youth and families need most, and the many ways our community can show up. Then join a table conversation to brainstorm practical ways individuals, churches, businesses, schools and organizations can be part of the village.

Whether you're interested in fostering, mentoring, volunteering, supporting a foster family or simply learning more, you'll leave with ideas for how you can make a difference. Because you don't have to do everything to be part of the village. You just have to do something.

This is the second in our Year of Our Youth series focused on supporting and guiding youth in our community.
