“I could never do foster care because I could never let them go and say goodbye.”The above statement is a common and genuine sentiment many share when discussing foster care.Foster care is a journey that can come with unexpected twists and turns, sacrifice, and yes, sometimes even goodbyes and heartache.Join us today as our Foster Care Program Director, Nicole Bowman, shares her journey to foster care and what led her to where she is today.

What kind of stories come to mind when you think of foster care?Many stories are filled with heartbreak, pain, and sorrow. But what if we could step in and see them turned into stories of hope?Hope Bridge is on a gospel-led mission to transform the foster care landscape in Ohio. We're here to raise awareness and empower churches and communities to step into action by supporting vulnerable children and families in their local communities.We’re certainly not the Author of these stories, and it’s true that we can't change the past, but we are called to be key characters in THE story that God has written for His creation. His is a story of redemption and restoration, a story of HOPE.In this podcast, we will share how we link arms with churches, county workers, foster families, and those in the community to rewrite the narrative for vulnerable children and families.We’ll be shining a light on stories of hope, redemption, and transformation and sharing practical ways that you can step in and get involved. Subscribe now, and together, let's make a difference in the lives of those who need it most.Welcome to "ReStoried," a podcast by Hope Bridge.
