If you have a heart for caring for kids and families in your community, there’s a near-endless list of ways you can get involved. Find out more about providing relational support, foster care and adoption, and everything in between in this episode.

*Note: Since we recorded this episode of the podcast, Dr. Deb Shropshire has stepped away from her role at Oklahoma Human Services. But given her years of experience caring for families involved in the foster care system, we're still so excited for you to hear from her on this subject.
