We need your support in raising awareness about the urgent need for resource foster parents across our state. Across the nation, there is a shortage of families who can provide safe, nurturing homes for children in foster care – in particular for children with higher needs. By sharing this message, you can inspire others to step forward and provide the care and stability that so many children in our state need and deserve. Like the suggested captions say, it takes a village. Together, we can all play our part in being that village for New Mexico’s most vulnerable.

On this page you will find both an image and a video for use on social media that highlight the critical need for resource foster parents in our states. We would greatly appreciate if you could help spread the word by posting wither the video or the image on your social media platforms. To make this request as easy for you to complete as possible, we’ve also drafted a couple of example captions that you are welcome to use or edit as needed, available below.

Thank you for your support. If you have any questions or need additional information, please contact us at communications@cyfd.nm.gov.
