Part 4/9:
Across the United States, over 400,000 children are in foster care, often feeling isolated and unsupported. Traditional foster families frequently face challenges like loneliness and burnout, which can lead to them giving up on their mission. Peppers Ranch’s approach counters this by fostering a strong sense of community among families, ensuring they do not walk the foster care journey alone. The families feel connected by a shared purpose—seeing their role not just as caregivers but as part of a larger movement to support traumatized children.
