Foster carers and adoptive parents find community and camaraderie in sharing their stories, offering each other support, and gaining insights into each other’s journeys. The challenges of creating safe spaces for trauma-affected children and helping them heal are discussed, highlighting the rewards of witnessing their growth and earning their trust. The foster care system provides a unique opportunity to form meaningful connections and belonging, understanding the complexities of emotions along the way. This community support system is a source of encouragement and motivation, especially during difficult times, as it reminds everyone that they aren’t alone in their struggles. Together, they find comfort, hope and inspiration in each other's experiences, creating a sense of 'coming home'.
