Spending years as a public-school teacher and football coach’s wife gave Paula Walker a front row seat to see the needs of children across our state early in her adulthood. She and her husband continually poured into students and players who came from hard situations and needed an encouraging word and direction. Eight years ago, the Lord used those experiences as a jumping point for her family into foster care. She and her husband became foster parents and adoptive parents, fueling her passion to start and facilitate foster care ministries at churches around the state and country.
