In recognition of National Foster Care Month, seven public and private agencies across Northeast Ohio have joined forces to address a critical shortage of licensed foster caregivers. Together, they are launching a one-day awareness and recruitment campaign, "Everyday Heroes, Everyday Homes."

On Wednesday, May 27, 2026, each agency will host a special event in its community aimed at educating prospective foster caregivers. The events will provide guidance on how to become licensed, explain the foster care process, and address common misconceptions about the system.

Medina County community members are invited to stop by The Grind Coffee Bar (124 N. Court Street, Medina) between 9am and 12pm on Wednesday, May 27th to learn more about how to become a foster caregiver and help to alleviate this urgent community need. We will be providing a limited number of free cups of coffee on a first come, first serve basis. We will also have a gift basket giveaway for anyone who stops by and enters the raffle. No event registration necessary.
