The Angels Family Foster Network 2023 Storytelling Gala will celebrate their 12th year of supporting foster families in Oklahoma. The agency’s mission is to rescue abused, abandoned, and neglected children; match them with a select group of trained resource parents; and ensure the maximum emotional, social, and intellectual development of each child. This year, the agency is starting a new program called beyond foster care, which will continue to serve and support families who have adopted children from foster care through the agency. They are also helping to provide service dogs to children who have not been able to attend school or leave their home due to severe trauma, anxiety and fear, adoptive family support groups, as well as ongoing training and resources to support foster families until children turn 18.
