Contra Costa Foster Friends hosts a monthly program to provide essential support for foster families. These families are often struggling under the weight of caring for their foster children, and your help can make a world of difference. The group meets on the second Monday of each month from 6:00 to 7:30 PM. During this time, we provide childcare and a meal, which really motivates families to attend. Here’s where we need your help:
