Sometimes it’s hard to know who we can rely on when things really get tough.For the kids who have lived at our house, sometimes — at surprisingly young ages — they feel they can’t rely on anyone but themselves.

We need connection; we need relationship.Watching this community step up to fill that need this week has been incredible.
