Mission is at the heart of Caroline Stanfill’s life. Among her many jobs, she’s worked in special education; for religious sisters; within the diocesan office of social ministries; and as a hospice chaplain. So after years of discernment, she decided to become a foster parent.
Stanfill is one of many Catholics across the country working with agencies like Catholic Charities to become foster parents.
