In this episode of To North Bay With Love, we mark Foster Family Appreciation Week by sitting down with local foster parent Alicia Freeman to talk about what foster parenting really looks like.

Alicia shares her experience of welcoming children into her home, the emotional challenges that come with fostering, and why getting attached is not something to fear.

She also explains the importance of supporting biological families, helping children stay connected to their communities, and working toward reunification whenever possible.
