MomTalk with Sandra Flach of Justice For Orphans
Show Notes

Welcome to Season 3 of the FASD Family Life Podcast. I am your host, Robbie Seale. I am an FASD educator, advocate and mom of five incredible people, including three teens diagnosed with Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder. If my 30 years of parenting has taught me anything it is that the struggle is real and so is success. 

This third season of the FASD Family Life podcast is a lot of fun. It's called MomTalk. I invited other mom's raising children and youth with FASD to join me for a coffee and a chat about real life, real struggles and real successes. It is my hope that by listening to our conversations you have the sense that you are not alone; we all get things wrong and we find out that when we know better we can do better.

SUBSCRIBE NOW so you never miss an episode of FASD Family Life.

Please join me and my special guest Sandra Flach for the first episode of MomTalk. Sandra is the mom of 8 children; five of whom came to her through adoption. Sandra is a woman on the move! She is an author, podcaster, director of a non-profit called Justice for Orphans, Wife, mother and grandmother.  I caught up with Sandra and asked her to join me on MomTalk.

Justice For Orphans was founded in 2012 by Sandra Flach and Mary Slager.  These adoptive and foster moms were wrecked by the global orphan crisis and the national foster care crisis—and the church’s lack of response to it.  On a mission to rally the Church, the duo jumped into advocacy work and began hosting annual adoption and foster care conferences. Sandra and Mary launched and hosted the Orphans No More weekly radio program on WDCD in Albany, NY in 2014. By 2018, the show became a podcast to encourage, educate, and equip those who care for children through adoption, foster care and kinship care. Today, the podcast, hosted by Sandra Flach, has a new name—The Adoption & Foster Care Journey— and tens of thousands of listeners world-wide.

“ Sandra weaves a beautiful tapestry with her written word, that brings together the past, present and future of their family’s continued journey together in life. You will not be disappointed with this book and the story that she tells with complete transparency.”
