Welcome To Mosaic Foster Parents Cafe

It often seems as though foster parents have been made to feel like extras in a movie when in reality they are the co-stars.

Mosaic Foster Parents Café is where all those special guides for vulnerable children meet to become better informed, better prepared and more encouraged to continue to serve on the frontlines of the child welfare system.

I am your host Takkeem Morgan. I spent 8 years of my life navigating the foster care system and that experience inspired me to become a change maker for vulnerable children and an advocate for foster parents.

Through this podcast I hope to inspire the next generation of foster parents and foster children to be great.

Our mission at Mosaic is to inspire and nurture the spirit of serving children and families one foster parent, one episode, and one community at a time.

Chatney Grice is a veteran frontline worker on behalf of children and families. She has worked 13 years in various capacities serving children and families in Indiana, including community health centers, and home-based and community-based services.

Chatney is currently an assistant deputy director at Indiana Department of Child Services and is working to not only identify challenges in foster parent training but to develop high quality solutions. She’s serious, focused, and motivated. That’s why Chatney Grice is one of our #HeroesOfFosterCare, now being celebrated on the Mosaic Foster Parents Café podcast. Tune in!

We start with a cup check, educate foster parents on the resources available to them, take questions from the community, and reimagine what the foster care system could be in a perfect world.
