A powerful episode of The Furiously Curious Show with Jenn Gamache from Safe Families, discussing the urgent crisis of family breakdown and how community support can make a life-changing impact.
Jenn shares her personal journey, growing up in a vulnerable home, experiencing deep struggles, and ultimately being surrounded by a church community that helped keep her and her mother together. Now, she’s on a mission to provide that same support to families in crisis, preventing children from entering the foster care system and offering struggling parents the resources they need to rebuild.
