The family unit plays a crucial role in shaping a child?s life.? A loving home is a tremendous blessing ?it?s easy for many of us to take that for granted.? But there are nearly 500 children in Nebraska still waiting on a forever family.? At the State, we are working diligently to find every one of these children a safe, loving home.? I encourage you to consider what you can do to play a part in changing a child?s life through adoption or foster care.
