LOVED Project Updates


LOVED Project now covers 18 counties across NE AR. They are: Independence, White, Stone, Cleburne, Woodruff, Jackson, Crittenden, Poinsett, Cross, Fulton, Izard, Sharp, Randolph, Craighead, Clay, Greene, Mississippi and Lawrence Counties.

Sudburry Radio Group will air a Radio PSA about the LOVED Project Heart Gallery throughout our new counties and their broadcast area.

Several referrals for children searching for their Forever Family has resulted in photos being added to the Heart Gallery and new photographers joining the group to donate their professional services to better the chances of adoption.

LOVED Project Mentor Program is coming along quite well with new mentors being assigned to form relationships with children who find themselves in the middle of the foster system.

Heart Gallery original and digital are being updated but will soon be back out on the road - look for updates on venues coming soon.

Summer is winding down but it has been great teaming up with the likes of Frito Lay for a 'Day In The Park' for Craighead County Foster Children, with the Adoption Specialist Group on the 2010 Adoption Picnic and with Mastercraft along with several community members who worked on 'A Kid Friendly Lobby' at Craighead County DHS. THANKS to ALL who have helped!!

YOU are what makes the difference,
Director Amy Harris
