Stories of our Mentors
Billy and John Wanted to Help

Louise and David Became Family
David's life changed forever when he was matched with Louise in one of The Network's Therapeutic Foster Care programs. The two became more than care provider and foster child to each other—they became family—and today Louise continues to help David thrive through The Network's Host Home program.
