💛 1. Kindness First, Always
We speak to one another with compassion, even when we disagree. There’s no place here for shaming, sarcasm, or passive aggression. Every foster journey is different—and every person is doing the best they can.
🐕 2. No Rescue Drama
This is a drama-free zone. We’re not here to debate or call out specific rescues, shelters, or individuals. If you’ve had a hard experience, you’re welcome to share it for support or insight, not to create conflict or gossip.
🤝 3. Support Over Perfection
You don’t need to be the “perfect” foster to belong here. Whether you’ve made mistakes, are learning as you go, or feel overwhelmed—we’ve been there. This is a place for honest support, not judgment or critique.
🙋 4. Ask for Help, Offer What You Can
We encourage asking questions, venting when needed, and sharing wins. You are not alone. And if you have wisdom or encouragement to offer, please share it with love.
🧘 5. Respect Each Other’s Limits
Not every foster can do medical cases. Not every rescue is equipped for behavior cases. We honor each person's boundaries, capacity, and comfort zone without comparison or guilt.
🛑 6. Zero Tolerance for Hate or Harm
We do not allow any racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, or bullying. Anyone engaging in harmful behavior will be removed from the group.
🕊️ 7. Confidentiality & Consent
What’s shared in this group stays in this group—unless you ask for or are given permission to share someone else’s story, quote, or post outside the space.
🌱 8. We're Here to Grow Together
This space isn’t about having all the answers—it’s about showing up. We welcome curiosity, reflection, and even discomfort as part of the journey toward being better fosters, better humans, and better community members.
