Love on Caseworkers is a monthly outreach program where Called to Care chapters rally volunteers to serve and encourage every childcare agency staff member in their county.
Each month, volunteers choose the month they’d like to serve, and we’ll provide all the details you need like headcount, date, time, and location. That way you can focus on showing care and appreciation.
Volunteers can come from all walks of life…local businesses, churches, Sunday school classes, small groups, youth groups, community service clubs, individuals, families, women’s ministries, high school clubs, and more.
Ways to serve can be simple but deeply meaningful—think flowers, handwritten cards, candy, cookies, lunch, coffee, gift cards, small gifts, or other creative tokens of appreciation.
Why it matters:
Child welfare professionals face some of the highest burnout and turnover rates of any profession. Community support can be a game-changer. In fact, research shows that “the chance of achieving permanency decreased from 74.5% to 17.5% after foster care youth received a caseworker change. Disruptions in casework services, due to changes in family service workers, are linked to increased rates of foster care drift” (Murphy, Van Zyl, Collins-Camargo, & Sullivan, 2012).
When we care for caseworkers, we help children find stability faster.
Ready to make a difference? Sign up here to serve and choose the month you’d like to bless your local caseworkers.
Visitation rooms are located within each childcare agency. These rooms are used daily as a space for biological families to meet and visit with the children who were removed from their home. All visits are supervised by an agency case manager. Called to Care is in the process of redesigning, redecorating, and refurnishing each of these rooms throughout our region. Most of the rooms are uninviting and dull in decor. Our goal is to create a warm, playful, and comfortable environment for families and their children. All of the rooms include art with encouraging Bible verses and quotes.
Relaxation rooms are a work in progress, designed with stressed and overworked case managers in mind. Called to Care is in the process of providing one of these rooms for each agency office in our region. These rooms will be a place for case managers to escape for a moment of rest and prayer while still at work. Rooms include plush rugs, low lighting, cozy seats, encouraging Bible verse art, devotionals, essential oil diffusers, and more.
Special events are our specialty! Called to Care also supports agency staff throughout the year by helping with: venues, guest speakers, holiday parties, gifts, food, decorations, and more.
