A special ceremony was held on September 10, 2012 with Senators Catherine Callbeck and Elizabeth Hubley presenting the medals. The CFFA would like to congratulate Nancy and her husband Wayne, and the other foster parents who received this medal.

Foster families play a very important role in the lives of children and youth in care across Canada. It is nice to see foster parents being recognized for their dedication and commitment to children and youth.
