Dignity Bags: Restoring Hope and Self-Worth
Children entering foster care often endure significant trauma, and the transition into foster care can amplify their stress and uncertainty. Tragically, many carry their belongings in trash bags, a degrading experience that can reinforce negative self-image.
The Dignity Bags Program by For Families Like Us aims to change that narrative. By providing foster children with high-quality backpacks, duffle bags, and diaper bags, we ensure that they can carry their belongings with dignity and care, making their transition a little less painful and a lot more hopeful.
