The Simcoe Muskoka Family Connexions foster resource team prepared a\u00a0<em><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/familyconnexions.ca\/fostering-resources\/\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">set of videos<\/span><\/a><\/strong><\/em>\u00a0to recruit foster care providers in our community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>Those videos were created with the intent to show the current challenges in finding local placements for children and youth and what happens when children and youth are placed outside of their home communities (Simcoe and Muskoka). The approach is meant to be hopeful and to show the positive sides to helping children and youth stay close to home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>The first video on the website is the introductory video. It shows a youth getting into a car and having to go so far away from everything they know, including family, friends, summer jobs, activities, connection to their community. The following vignettes show the benefits of keeping kids close to home: they remain in close contact with family, keep their summer jobs, remain in the community they know, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>We hope to encourage residents in our vast communities to open their homes to children and youth so that they stay connected to family and community. By opening your home, you can make a difference in their life. You don\u2019t have to be a perfect person, but an individual or<br>couple with a genuine interest in children and a sense of community responsibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>If you or someone you know is interested in fostering complete the form here:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/familyconnexions.ca\/contact\/\"><em><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">https:\/\/familyconnexions.ca\/contact\/<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n<h5 style=\"text-align: center;\">Don\u2019t miss out on Doppler!<\/h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Sign up <a href=\"https:\/\/doppleronline.ca\/huntsville\/dont-miss-out-on-doppler\/\"><u>here<\/u><\/a> to receive our email digest with links to our most recent stories.<br \/>\nLocal news in your inbox so you don&#8217;t miss anything!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a style=\"background: #5cb85c url('https:\/\/d1iczxrky3cnb2.cloudfront.net\/red_logo.png') no-repeat 37px; color: #fff; text-decoration: none; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; display: inline-block; font-size: 16px; padding: 15px 38px; padding-left: 75px; -webkit-border-radius: 2px; -moz-border-radius: 2px; border-radius: 2px; box-shadow: 0 1px 0 0 #1f5a89; text-shadow: 0 1px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.3);\" href=\"https:\/\/donorbox.org\/support-huntsville-doppler\">Click here to support local news<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><broadstreet-zone zone-id=\"45657\" keywords=\"\" soft-keywords=\"true\" zone-alias=\"\"><\/broadstreet-zone>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Anyone can be a foster care provider, but do you know what it takes?
