Ellie Egles is the Director of Care and Support at Foster the Bay. Through the work of Foster the Bay, Ellie and her husband Guillaume became Foster Parents, and have seen firsthand the profound impact of having support along the foster care journey. Ellie is excited to be able to use her gifts and experience to further equip foster families, as well as the Foster the Bay Team. She also loves to read and makes the best banana bread.
Due to the challenges inherent in fostering, 60% of foster families nationwide won’t make it past the first year. However, we’ve found that the retention rate improves when fostering occurs within the context of a supportive community.
