Those who would like to help local children and teens find their ‘forever family’ can contact Jennifer Burgess by Monday, July 7 to sign up for the meeting. Call 315-963-5382 or email [email protected] and provide an email address to register.
Login information will be provided to those who pre-register. If no responses are received, the meeting will be cancelled.
Attendance at this informational meeting is required to enroll in the 11-week adoptive/foster preparation program. Single and two-parent families may apply to foster or adopt. Both parents in a two-parent household must attend the training.
With dozens of local children and teens in need of love and care, DSS encourages residents to help raise awareness about this critical issue and share this information with friends and family members who may be interested. People can start to make a difference in the life of a young person by participating in this valuable program.
