Camp To Belong Oregon is a week long summer camp designed for brothers and sisters living separated in out of home care to spend meaningful time together. Opportunities for separated siblings to spend prolonged time together are few and far between. For these youth, camp provides an opportunity for normalcy in their sibling relationships and time spent among other youth who have walked their same path. Camp is specifically designed for siblings to spend quality time and make memories together in a fun, childhood setting. Two sessions provided. 99 siblings attended and 71 volunteers supported.
Family Camp is a long weekend of fellowship, fun and education for families involved in providing out of home care in Oregon. Kindred Matters provides training from experts for foster parents to receive continuing education credits to maintain their certifications. Families bring all of their children (whether foster, adoptive, kinship, biological) and volunteers supervise and support youth with fun activities while parents are in training. Outside of training hours, Kindred Matters plans and hosts family games and activities for family fun and bonding and families are able to network and share experiences as a form of support for one another. 101 youth, 44 adults and 20 volunteers attended.
KINnect Events are designed for brothers and sisters living separated to have consistent visitation together outside of a parent visit or DHS visitation center. KINnect Events remove barriers to siblings being together consistently, which in turn provides a sense of normalcy and strengthens their relationships. Siblings get together on a regular basis in four areas around the state. While at activities, brothers and sisters participate in fun activities and share a meal together. 305 children, 141 adults and 65 volunteers participated throughout the season
