For years, Dawn opened her heart and home to foster children. Eventually, she decided to grow her own family—adopting her two boys through Catholic Charities.

Many people step away from fostering after adoption, but not Dawn.

When she met her husband Darrell, she was upfront about her passion for fostering and adopting children in need of a safe, loving home. Without hesitation, Darrell joined her mission and became a licensed foster parent too.

Today, Dawn and Darrell have adopted four children and have one biological child—but their commitment didn’t stop there.

They continued to foster and provide respite care, creating a home filled with love. As they like to say, it’s like hosting an extended sleepover and playdate.

"Our kids have always been very welcoming," Dawn said, "We explain to them that their mom and dad need some time to get their stuff together so they're [foster child] going to stay with us for awhile,"

The need for foster families is greater than ever. Catholic Charities provides the training and support you need to make a difference in a child’s life.
