Our team of volunteers has been busy discussing ways for our church to be helpful in the world of foster care.
LAST MEETING
-We want to start pursuing a Parent's Night Out opportunity for Haven Church members and Eau Claire foster families to take advantage of.
-We are looking at doing this monthly on a Friday night from 5-8pm at Haven Church.
-We want to be helpful and design a way for this to be long lasting and impactful.
-We will have our first one in October.
-We'd like to communicate well with local social workers and staff from EC County to make sure that this is effective and meeting the needs of foster parents.
-WELCOMED (Wausau) and THE FORGOTTEN INITIATIVE (Eau Claire) are willing to help us. Let's use their resources if they are available.
ACTION STEPS
-Haven Church had lots of candy bars from Mother's Day. We donated the remaining candy bars to the social workers of EC County. They loved it!
