Sharon Aday
I have been a Foster (resource) parent for several years off and on. I do emergency placements also. I have worked in the Marketing/Sales field for 25+ years, I enjoy meeting new people and helping others out anyway I can.
I look forward to helping spread the word in our community on the need for Foster (resource) homes and volunteers. The kiddos need us to be there for them to show them they are special and loved and wanted.
If you have any questions about being a Foster parent please feel free to reach out to me Id love to chat.
