About this Event
This event is aimed towards city, business, and faith leaders, foster and adoptive families, and community members. *Due to the film's mature themes surrounding foster care and trauma, this event is best suited for adults.
The vision for this event is to awaken hearts and open eyes to the realities facing children in South Dakota's foster care system — and to invite every attendee to discover their unique role in making a difference. Through the power of story, we aim to spark meaningful partnerships, inspire personal commitment, and build a movement of community members who say 'yes' to caring for vulnerable children. We want to ensure foster and adoptive families are surrounded, supported, and never walking that road alone. Together, we are building a community that protects the vulnerable today and for generations to come.
