Camp to Belong – Nicole Hall
With a newly acquired degree in Psychology, Nicole began work as a child protective service worker for the state of Oregon in 1996. In 2004 she began volunteering for this week-long summer camp that reunites siblings separated from each other in foster care, coordinating fundraisers and volunteering as a camp counselor. Today she continues her career, providing training for child welfare staff to help them identify ways to keep siblings together in foster care.
