Preserving families by assisting kin caregivers
By Yvette De Andreis
Community Relations Coordinator,
Edgewood Center for Children and Families
When Falope Fatunmise was seven years old, his mother died
and he was suddenly homeless. If his aunt and uncle hadn't offered to take him in,
he would have been sent to a foster home.
Falope has never forgotten this kindness and has dedicated himself to helping
other kin caregivers who want to keep families together. Today Falope is the
Director of Edgewood's Kinship Support Network (KSN) which serves families
at sites in East Palo Alto, South San Francisco, and San Francisco.
