Hi! I'm Katie! I'm a mom of 4 wonderful kids (formed in part through foster care & private adoption) and 3 wild pups. I help other parents, organizations and programs as a foster care/adoption consultant, workshop facilitator and public speaker.

3 Easy Ways to Cultivate Openness in Your Home:
-
Ensure kids have access to books that reflect a variety of family dynamics (my book, The Love Tree, is a must have for any foster/adoptive family!)
-
Choose dolls, toys, art supplies and tv shows that embrace a range of identities and skin tones.
-
Let children know they can share their thoughts, feelings, and questions without fear of judgment or hurting your feelings.
