Foster Greatness

As we gear up to spend tomorrow--Thanksgiving--with our communities, it is important that we recognize the history of our Indigenous and Native community members. We want to acknowledge the history of the Indian Child Welfare Act and pay acknowledgement to tomorrow as a Day of Mourning for many Indigenous and Native peoples. We see you. We hear you. We wish to uplift you. #thanksgiving #NativeAmericanHistory #childwelfare
