It's National Foster Care Month!

Did you know that May is National Foster Care Month?

To celebrate, we are having an awesome dinner for our foster parents as well as other activities that will create awareness about treatment foster care. We have set up a donation box in our lobby for our foster children. We are requesting items such as:
  •    Feminine products
  •    Fidget cubes/spinners
  •   Journal or diaries
  •   Board games
  •   Barbie dolls
  •   Gifts cards for clothing or food (ex: Wal-Mart, Target, Subway, etc.)

Please make sure that all items are new or “gently used”. These children are often removed from their homes due to abuse or neglect and placed on an emergency basis through our TFC program and come with little or no personal care items. All donations are greatly appreciated by the staff and our foster children who are in need.

In June, we will be having a seminar by Dr. Girio-Herrera from Towson University entitled Strategies for Improving Parent-Child Relationships and Preventing Noncompliance and Misbehavior. Be sure to come back as we will be providing more details about this event.


If you have questions on donating or Treatment Foster Care, please contact Wendy Kelly at wkelly@arcncr.org or 410-836-7177, ext. 335.
