Families who adopt children with severe behaviors from foster care have a chance at hope thanks to Katie Rose Noto.

Katie Rose Noto always knew she wanted to adopt a child at some point in her life. She imagined a house full of children and dogs. As her life progressed she made the choice to dive into being a foster parent whether she felt fully ready or not. Little did she know that the boys she welcomed into her home had suffered abuse and neglect to the point where they exhibited severe behaviors that she had never seen or heard of. Katie Rose went on a journey she had never imagined finding herself on, and she felt very alone and overwhelmed. Her training didn't prepare her for what she was seeing in front of her. Even though she felt alone she thought there must be others out there that were struggling with children who had severe diagnoses like hers. Katie Rose is determined to try to connect and support others like her. She started Attach Families, INC to connect and support families like hers with a support hotline, support groups and other services that Attach Families offers free of charge. Katie Rose is not done, though. She has big dreams of a world where kids like her sons are supported and cocooned with all the treatments that might lead them to the most productive and happy life they can reach.
