Kids in foster care have experienced significant trauma from abuse and neglect and, as a result, often need mental health services. Yet too often, kids in foster care and their caregivers are left to navigate triggering events and conflicts on their own, even though immediate professional support is critical in times of crisis.
Tell our state’s leaders to support a common sense solution – a toll-free hotline, available 24/7, so caregivers and kids in foster care, who are experiencing emotional, behavioral or other difficulties, can get immediate help, and mobile response teams to provide face-to-face, in-home response to help in the most difficult situations.
Sign on here to ensure kids in foster care and their caregivers have access to vital mental health services by April 3. For more information, please see attached fact sheet.
