This is a foster care advocacy organization that has created a model of foster care that is being researched and the results are very positive. I have a friend who works for them. Check it out at mockinbirdsociety.org. They are trying to "fix" the foster care system.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23062320.post-48040235458702153042008-11-06T08:20:00.000-05:002008-11-06T08:20:00.000-05:00I will take a look at your survey.

I definitely think the foster care system is broken and, as a foster mom, I'm experiencing it first hand!<BR/><BR/>I’m also stopping by to let you know that I’m hosting the “Holiday Cooking, Blogger Style” recipe exchange again this year, coming up this Friday. I hope you can join me and if you’re willing to help me spread the news, I’m offering a <A HREF="http://overwhelmedwithjoy.blogspot.com/2008/10/sticky-for-holiday-cooking-blogger.html" REL="nofollow"> giveaway</A> as well!Overwhelmed!https://www.blogger.com/profile/03213476355485623906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23062320.post-49050464709913494772008-10-09T19:49:00.000-04:002008-10-09T19:49:00.000-04:00How's that Squeak baby??

We've had two very different experiances from this year and last although I've had the same two children, my only fosters, and the adoption is closing soon. <BR/>Last year they were terrible, we didn't hear from anyone for six months. The County did not even know if I still had the kids. <BR/>This year has been a turn around and they have really stepped up. <BR/>So, although I am not taking the survey I think it's great and wonder if there is a way for you to post the results when you close it? I'd be very curious to know.Kristinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07931606630070447141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23062320.post-24238758097798373882008-08-27T16:48:00.000-04:002008-08-27T16:48:00.000-04:00Thank you for doing this!
