"Did you know it would take less than one percent of the U.S. population to provide a forever family for every child in foster care available for adoption?" AdoptUsKids.org is working with several organizations focused on advocacy for kids in foster care this month to provide resources and get the word out about these children in need of families. What can you do to help?
