It seems that marriage in Spain and Portugal is basically signing up to your relationships failing. Why are their divorce rates so high? Some insight would be great from those who have experienced marriage in Spain or Portugal.

Sadly, the FCAV has had to make the decision to move our AGM and Carer Celebration online again this year but carers won't missing out with a chance to come together for Foster Care Week. Read on: fcav.org.au/news/agm-and-c…

International Women’s Day is coming up on the March 8 2021. The FCAV recognises women who have provided foster care over the last 12 months have borne a high social and economic cost due to COVID-19 on top of existing stressors in the system. lnkd.in/gJMCJvp
A significant day for many across the child protection sector. Advocates, carers, care leavers and children & young ppl currently in OOHC will breathe a sigh of relief. Today, thousands of young people across Vic have been given a chance. Beyond 18 is no longer just darkness.

Depite many workers trying their best in residential care "it is a system, unfortunately, that in too many cases, causes more harm than good." These are children the state has removed from their families because they've been at risk. We owe them more. abc.net.au/news/2020-10-2…
Just in time for Xmas & the perfect way to celebrate lockdown limbo coming to an end! Our wine fundraiser will help support Vic foster carers. Funds raised from the sale of a variety of premium Victorian wines will help fund additional support for carers. @vicfostercare

Over 80 per cent of young people aged 18 - 21 live at home for these important years. Why can't the Government give young people in their care the same opportunities? #makeit21
This statistic is alarming... Let’s break this down. 100 kids are held in custody or on bail. 66 of these kids aren’t given a custodial sentence and therefore shouldn’t be held in custody or on bail. 66 lives disrupted, 66 family’s lives disrupted, 66 victims of a broken system.

"Adoption was a dirty word, there was a great stigma, it was like a secondhand kid almost - that's how I felt anyway," Foster mum Amanda McGill on why she's passionate about changing kids' lives and experiences in foster care.
And that’s a wrap. #FosterCareWeek is over for another year. This past yr was tough and what stood out for me was the dedication carers have to support the young ppl in their care. Carers need support too and #FCAV @vicfostercare will be there in 2020/2021 to provide it.
As a foster carer, you have the opportunity to provide stability and support, while helping children feel connected to others. This #FosterCareWeek, consider the contribution you could make to our most vulnerable children. Visit fosteringconnections.com.au/enquire #CaringThroughCOVID19
This week is #fostercareweek. If you know a foster carer then I urge you to reach out and check-in with them to ensure they’re looking after themselves. When you dedicate your life to caring for others it can become very easy to forget about yourself. @vicfostercare
Foster Care Week is almost here! Last chance to register to our Carer Celebration in one week’s time! So looking forward to hearing from carers, speakers and a Welcome to Country from the wonderful Sue-Anne Hunter! #FosterCareWeek2020 #ValueOfCarers #CaringThroughCOVID19
