Camelot Community Center
Our speakers today were
Michele Egan and Nicole Vredenburg of the Camolet Community Center of
Fort Lauderdale. This organization works as a non-profit entity
finding foster homes for "at risk" kids - abused, abandoned, in
trouble, etc. Especially challenging is finding homes for the
older children and some kids of minority backgrounds.
Additionally, finding the right foster home for the right child is
also challenging. This organization also provides counseling for
some of the kids by way of a for profit arm of the corporations.
Camelot has also successfully arranged for some of their kids'
adoption by foster families. The organization is supported by
public funding as well as private donations. |
