The CRFKA Mentor Program matches each new foster family and many kinship families with an experienced mentor to support and guide them through the first 12 months of their fostering journey. This is after-hours, peer-support of someone who has knowledge of the “system”, working with biological family, behavior management and all things related to having a foster/kinship child in your care. They are warm, welcoming, kind and empathetic – just the kind of selfless people you’d expect to be part of the fostering community.
