Good day, Bermuda,

Thank you, Minister, for shining a light on Foster Care in Bermuda.

The Department of Child & Family Services has been observing Foster Care Month for over 20 years.

This year, we wanted to do something different with our recruitment drive, so we created ‘Foster Bermuda’s Future’ to spread awareness.

As you can see, one of the first initiatives of our campaign is vibrant Bus Banners on Bermuda’s Public Transportation. This would not be possible without the excellent work done by Total Marketing & Communications who outfitted the buses with the banners.

Our banners will be showcased through the month of May, and they encourage you to ‘Be a Foster Parent and Foster Bermuda’s Future.’

We are extremely thankful for our partnership with the Department of Communications for their continued support to advance our initiatives.

It is our hope that the word is spread within the community and interested persons are encouraged to make contact with me to learn more about the foster care programme.

I can be reached out 294-5871 or by email smsimons@gov.bm.

To our Foster Families and Foster Children, both present and past, it is an honor to serve you, and although the journey will not always be easy, Bermuda is here to support you.

Thank you.
