Kinship, Foster Care and Adoption Blogs and Online Communities

Using social media sites such as blogs, email groups, and Facebook pages can be a wonderful way to connect with others within the community. These outlets can provide us with a different perspective on things.  We realize it can also be overwhelming to sort through the hundreds of options.  Here are a few that we have found to be of particular interest.

Online Spaces Just For Kids

This section has been created for youths that have been in foster care or have been adopted. The information is provided to help those most affected learn about their rights, the laws and regulations that affect their lives.
