Join us as we come together with The Foster Care and Adoption Awareness Coalition (FCAAC) for our ‘Bluebird Celebration’ to raise awareness about local children currently in the Virginia Foster Care system and the need for local foster families!

This event is open to anyone in the community who is interested in showing support! Come out and join us!

Bring your creativity and artistic abilities to create a bluebird or choose one from our flock to display on the lawn of the McGuffey Art Center, helping to raise awareness for children experiencing foster care. One original bluebird work = each unique child experiencing foster care. There are currently more than 193 boys and girls in our community experiencing foster care. These children will help build the future of our community, but right now their future depends on us!!!

The Foster Care Adoption Awareness Coalition consists of these local nonprofits: People Places, Community Attention Foster Families (CAFF), Piedmont CASA, the Departments of Social Services in Albemarle and Charlottesville, DePaul Community Resources, and United Methodist Family Services.
