National Adoption Month
Often children going into foster care leave their home with little more than a garbage bag of clothes. This month, Headspace Media is teaming up with Westmoreland Children First to help children have a safe transition into foster care and adoption. Read more to see how we are doing this and how you can help.
On any given day, almost 424,000 children are living in the U.S. foster care system.* However, there is nowhere near the number of foster and adoptive parents needed to ensure each child has a safe, comfortable home. These children need people who can help in the short term or to become a forever home.
Of the over 64,000 children and youth who were adopted in 2019: 52% were adopted by their foster parent.*
Whitney Rusiewicz, an account manager at Headspace Media, has sacrificed so much of her time and energy to foster children. She went on to adopt two of those children giving them a forever home. At Headspace Media, we are excited to share her story and do what we can to help children and families in need.
