Saskatchewan is celebrating the dedicated and caring foster families across this province during Foster Families Week from October 22-28.
"I want to personally thank all of the foster families who are providing a loving and nurturing home for Saskatchewan's most vulnerable citizens," Social Services Minister June Draude said. "You are making a real difference in the lives of Saskatchewan children and youth."
"We want to express our deepest appreciation for Saskatchewan's foster parents and are proud to support them in the important work that they do," Saskatchewan Foster Families Association Executive Director Deb Davies said. "There continues to be a real need for more foster families across this province, and I encourage caring and committed families willing to open their hearts and homes to vulnerable children to call 1-800-667-7002 for more information."
