To support the mission of National Foster Care Month, we offer members of the media extensive information in this online newsroom. We also have a team of knowledgeable media liaisons who are available to assist with additional information, sources, and suggested story angles. Our aim is to make it easier for media to access the background information, data, experts and other resources necessary for providing balanced and informative reporting about foster care. Media liaisons can provide:

  • Story angles tailored to diverse audiences
  • Notable spokespeople and recent alumni who can recount their experiences of growing up in foster care
  • National experts who can address questions about key child welfare issues
  • Inspiring examples of how caring adults have helped to change a lifetime for a young person in foster care
  • Photos, video and audio for stories, reports, and supplemental web content
  • A menu of ways for ordinary people to help, including very simple options that only take a few minutes, a few hours or a few weeks.
