Faces of Foster Parents

Who helps care for nearly 2,500 children and teens in Hillsborough County’s foster care system? While many children live with relatives in foster care, hundreds of others live with the more than 400 foster parents.

Who are our community’s foster parents? And why do they choose to become foster parents? Below are several short video clips of just some of our foster parents.

Aundré West

Chandra Cotton
