Thanks to financial support, we were able to pay for the labor of psychologists who work with foster families!

The decision to foster a child without parental care or an orphan is a very important one and must be approached with great responsibility. Especially when it comes to children with special health problems. Parents need to weigh their possibilities, get information about the child's condition, understand the difficulties they may face when adapting the child to the family. It is very important to our Foundation team that children with spina bifida find their best parents. We understand how difficult it is when something goes wrong, if suddenly expectations do not coincide with reality. That is why we have an experienced psychologist in our psychological support project who supports families who have already adopted a child or are still in the decision-making stage. Some tasks in the work of a specialist: to help candidates understand the motives for adopting a child into a family, to gain greater confidence in themselves and their own strengths, to assess their own capabilities and resources, to provide new knowledge, to develop the skills necessary for the upbringing and development of an adopted child. And also - the formation of an adequate, realistic attitude towards the child’s limited capabilities and assistance in solving psychological problems that arise during the preparation process or after the child is accepted into the family. We are now opening a collection to pay for the work of such an important specialist! Helping future foster families is real!
