CELEBRATING HOW HOYLETON CARES In the past year, we implemented CARE (Children And Residential Experiences) into not only our resi dential homes, but throughout our organization as a whole. By doing so, we have noticed significant changes within each department. The CARE program is a research-based and traumainformed model that focuses on six core principles: relationship based, developmentally focused, family involved, com petence centered, trauma informed, and ecologically oriented. Here at Hoyleton, we take these princi ples and integrate them into our everyday practices in order to create a more healthy and beneficial mindset within those who serve our organization.
“It feels more like a home setting since we started CARE. CARE allows us to give our kids more independence and trust.”
By implementing CARE into our residential facilities, we are able to create a more homelike atmosphere for our youth. Adding CARE principles into foster care has been beneficial for reunification and educating foster and birth parents. Our counseling services use CARE principles while working with clients in the schools and communities. Puentes de Esperanza is able to apply CARE in workshops and activities they host for Hispanic families. In addition, our preventative services use CARE through partnerships with schools and addressing drug related issues in our community.
We place CARE training as a top priority with each new staff member. Cumulatively, our staff have participated in 3,425 hours of trainings, Anthony Smith, which is something we celebrate. By training our staff on CARE principles, Residential Shift we are being faithful to our mission here at Hoyleton Youth and Family Supervisor Services. We encour age self-awareness, being reflective, transparent, and responsive to other staff mem bers and clients. We believe this reflective practice is essential to our growing organization, so that we can impact more lives of those hurting in our “CARE communities. is important to me because it has helped me These training sessions allow our staff to be educated and trained as better understand how they work alongside individuals that enter our services in the midst of a to better serve our chilcrisis. “Trauma affects the brain on so many levels and as a result, our dren and families while children need more support to help them overcome and endure life’s looking through a trauma challenges,” said Train ing Coordinator, Mindy Miller. lens.” If you are a Hoyleton foster parent who is interested in taking CARE, please contact your Case Manager to register.

FOSTERING A LASTING RELATIONSHIP Becoming a foster parent means stepping in during a time of crisis and opening your home to a child that is scared and vulnerable. As a foster parent, it is not only your responsibility to show love for the child, but to also show suppor t to their bir th parents who are struggling. This is where the idea of co-parenting can be ver y impactful. Co-parenting can look ver y different depending on the situation, but it essentially it is when bir th parents and foster parents work together in favor of the child. Examples of this can be notifying parents of doctor appointments, school meetings, or communicating with the parents on updates regarding the child. This practice is neccessar y in order to create a smoother transition for when the child and parent are reunited.
TIP: Ask biological parents about their child. Allow them to ask you about yourself. Letting them know they can ask you questions allows them to get to know you as you care for their child.
Co-parenting can be difficult. When a child comes to your home and shows signs of trauma or neglect, instinctively, you w ant to do ever ything in your power to chield the child. This may cause you to feel conflicting thoughts of c o-parenting with the child’s biological parents. Bir th parents are struggling just as much as their children, just in different ways. These parents also need love and s uppor t. They are feeling fear ful, angr y and helpless because their child was removed from their home. They do not n eed judgement, ridicule, or shame; but instead, they need to know you believe in them even when they don’t believe i n themselves.
TIP: Encourage biological parents to attend appointments and school functions. Give them a chance to parent as much as possible by encouraging them to take the lead at appointments.
In Madison county alone, there are over 600 children in the Child Welfare System. Amy, who has been a foster parent for Hoyleton for over five years, is a strong advocate for co-parenting, “It’s impor tant to look past the issues the parents are having and first look at them as people,” said Amy. She applies this mindset when working with her foster children’s bir th parents. Throughout the years, she and her husband have co-parented on behalf of five children and as a result, three of those children were able to return home.
Amy and her husband have 11 children total with ages ranging from infancy to 23 years-old. Foster Care is a topic that t hey both hold ver y de ar to their hear t, as they were both in foster care themselves. “At some point, the c ycle must stop,” said Amy. Her passion to break the foster care cycle is also what motivates her to co-parent, as most of the children she fosters come from parents who were also in foste r care. Co-parenting allows you to build confidence within bir th parents; and by doing so, you are not only helping end the v icious cycle, but you are allowing for an easier transition on the child, in hopes that they can return to their bir th parents. H oyleton suppor ts co-parenting by understanding that parents deser ve an oppor tunity to be present in t heir child’s life, “ We encourage fathers and mothers to par ticipate in visits, treatment planning, community outings, as well as therapy,” s aid Emerging Adult Ser vices Manager, Constance Lockett. Co-parenting is one way in which we encourage all involved par ties to build relationships. Being relationship based is a CARE principle that Hoyleton embodies as an organization. We believe in creating healthy relationships which are imperative for children to build trust. When co-parenting, it is impor tant that ever yone is on the same page. In some cases, the child may transition smoothly back to their bioparent, some may be adopted by a loving family, but still strengthen their relationship with their bir th p arents. You do not have to be a foste r parent to give suppor t to bir th parents. Being a suppor t system for bir th parents gives you an oppor tunity to make a difference in the lives of both parent and child. But, no matter what the situation may be, ever yone’s overall goal should be to focus on the wellness of the child in care. Foster Care can be a roller-coaster of emotions, but we do it because we know there are children and parents who need love.
TIP: Send pictures. Not just of the children but of your home, the child’s room, the play area, and backyard. If you are comfortable, send a picture of your family too.
