All Saints Church to Host Foster Care, Adoption Workshop Thursday

Event aims to answer questions about becoming resource parent in Los Angeles County

All Saints Church in Pasadena will host an information session Thursday, Oct. 2, for people interested in fostering or adopting children in Los Angeles County.

The workshop will be held in Sweetland Hall at All Saints. It begins at 6 p.m.

A church announcement said the Foster Care Project Steering Committee and All Our Kids will present the session. Church staff and guests will answer questions about resource parenting.

Resource parents either foster or adopt children in state care.

All Saints Church’s Foster Care Project provides education, advocacy and direct services. The program supports children and youth in foster care.

It also helps homeless, transitional and incarcerated youth.

The project works to increase awareness of the foster care crisis in Los Angeles County. It recruits volunteers and provides direct services.

Services include helping foster families and celebrating children’s birthdays. The project also collects donations such as diapers and clothing.

The All Our Kids Project shares similar goals. It educates the public about foster care system challenges.

The program creates opportunities for volunteers to serve. Volunteer roles include coach monitor and participating in birthday celebrations for children.

Both programs aim to improve quality of life for vulnerable youth. They work through direct aid and system changes.
