President's Corner
Hello HCFPA

The HCFPA board members were busy in March providing many great events for our members. We started the month with our HCFPA monthly meeting introducing Lorita Shirley, Executive Director for Eckerd Community Alternatives who will take over as lead agency of Hillsborough County in July 2012.

HCFPA participated in the Kinship Care Resource Fair on March 10, the HCFPA Respite program on March 17, and our Spring Fling Picnic on March 31. Thank you to the hard-working volunteers that make up the HCFPA Board for all they do for our families.

I would like to welcome our new members to the HCFPA family. The HCFPA membership is made up of foster and adoptive parents, relative and non-relative caregivers. HCFPA is here to support, advocate and provide great events for our families. If you have not joined HCFPA, we would like to welcome you to become a member of this great family of caregivers and the children we love.

HCFPA membership is $30.00 per year for the entire family. You can join at the HCFPA meetings the 1st Saturday of each month at the meeting or on our web site at HCFPA.org. I look forward to seeing you at our monthly meetings.
