Episode 130 - Opening Doors, Changing Lives: The Foster Care Mission with Sheryl Canales
Today’s guest brings both heart and leadership to one of the most vital conversations we can have — how we care for children in crisis. Sheryl Canales is the Director of the Foster Care Program at Epworth Family Services, where she leads a team committed to providing safe, stable, and nurturing homes for kids who cannot live with their biological families. Under her direction, the program is not only ensuring trauma-informed care and strong coordination with case workers — it’s actively working to recruit more foster parents across Nebraska. If you've ever wondered what the foster care system really looks like or how you might be able to help, today’s episode will leave you informed, inspired, and ready to take action.
