I thoroughly enjoyed sharing my expertise about kinship care today at the PA Kinship Care Summit. It was great to meet so many wonderful kinship families and colleagues who do so much good work for these families.

Now, more than ever, connection is important. While it may feel scary to connect because of past hurts and even past traumas, we heal in community. Find your people. You will heal there.
