Eight is Sasha's lucky number

Life Without Barriers, foster mum Sasha says that the decision to foster all came down to one child: *Aaron.

Prior to becoming foster parents, *Sasha and her partner *Aiden worked in a disability care in a group home; first as shift workers and later as house parents.

A Department of Communities and Justice (DCJ) representative approached them about fostering one of the children in the home. That was in 2013.

Nine years later, the couple fosters eight children, including Aaron. Sacha’s in-laws live with them so there are twelve people living in their home. Her father-in-law helps run the kids around which is a big help.

 

*Names have been changed to protect the identity of the people we help.
