Being a foster carer, you still have to approach it, like I said, with an open heart and an open mind, and that understanding that it's perhaps not necessarily a permanent placement.
Ever wondered what it’s like to be a foster carer or how to support someone in the foster care system? In this episode of Youth and Loud, Glenn Munso sits down with Luke Sapwell, treasurer of the Foster Care Association of Victoria, to discuss the ins and outs of foster care. Luke shares his personal journey through the foster care system, offering a firsthand look at the challenges faced by both carers and children.
He emphasizes the importance of flexibility and open-mindedness in providing the best support for young people in care. Luke also highlights the significance of Foster Care Week and encourages everyone to normalize conversations around foster care. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in understanding the foster care system better or looking to make a positive impact in the lives of young people in care.
