EXAMPLES INCLUDE PROVIDING A LAPTOP AND TRAINING TO A KINSHIP GRANDPARENT TO ENABLE EXPENSE INVOICE SUBMISSION; CONNECTING FAMILIES TO LICENSING AGENCIES TO START THE FOSTER CARE LICENSING PROCESS, AND CONNECTING GUARDIANS TO COMMUNITY AND BEHAVIORAL HEALTH RESOURCES. OUR LIFE BOOK STAFF CREATED BEAUTIFUL BOOKS THAT TELL A FOSTER CHILD'S STORY IN A SENSITIVE, ACCURATE, AND AGE APPROPRIATE WAY. THESE BOOKS ARE DONE FOR CHILDREN THAT WILL NOT BE REUNIFIED WITH THEIR BIOLOGICAL PARENT. ONE OF AVIVA'S LARGEST EVENTS IS OUR HOLIDAY TOY/GIFT EVENT. MONETARY CONTRIBUTIONS AND IN-KIND TOY DONATIONS ALLOWED AVIVA TO PROVIDE HOLIDAY TOYS AND GIFTS TO OVER 2240 FOSTER AND KINSHIP CHILDREN IN DECEMBER 2020.
