Blessing Frightened Children Who Are Going Into Foster Care
By Richard Hunt\nInstead of a black trash bag for their personal things, kids removed from their homes can get a \u2018Comfort Kit\u2019 courtesy of the encouraging people at Love Modesto. \u201cWhen you think about it, you\u2019re being taken away from everything you\u2019ve ever known and placed in a home with strangers.\u201d Children may be separated from a brother or sister and \u201cyou don\u2019t know what\u2019s happening next. You don\u2019t know when you\u2019re going to be able to go back home \u2013 if you ever are. And it can be very traumatic.\u201d -- Crystal McKiernan
