Foster Parent with Community Care Resources Inc

I was a foster parent for 10 years and helped over 45 children and adopted 4 through special needs adoption. My husband passed away 09/2018, with his passing, I stopped foster care in December. I have been able to be a stay at home Mom since then with a short term job at Dollar General. My children are now in high school and I have more flexibility to get back into the work environment. Thank you for your time and I look forward to speaking with you soon.
