104: A Solution to the Foster Care Crisis
MID-SEGMENT GUEST: Shayne Barker
Ministry: Every Child Arkansas
Part 2 in the 3-Part Wraparound Grandparenting Series
The iRetire4Him Podcast continues in its discussion of wraparound grandparenting, giving listeners more details, examples, and reasons to participate. Host Jim Brangenberg and Retirement Reformation founder Bruce Bruinsma delve into this concept, a solution to the crisis in foster care and adoption.
With 115,000 kids in need of homes and a lack of long-term support for foster parents, wraparound grandparenting involves engaging seniors aged 55 and older to provide a supportive network for fostering and adopting families. Bruce shares insights from his personal experience and highlights the positive impact of wraparound grandparenting.
Special guest Shayne Baker discusses Every Child Arkansas, an initiative addressing the foster care dilemma through collaboration. As the episode unfolds, Bruce emphasizes the importance of seniors engaging in meaningful ways to combat loneliness in their own lives while making a lasting impact on children and families.
