SOMERSET, Pa (WJAC) — Promoting adoption by bringing families in Somerset out for a “family a-fair."

Somerset County Children and Youth Services hosted an event on Saturday, in partnership with the statewide Adoption and Permanency network at Somerset Church of the Brethren.

There were carnival-themed games and food for the kids and professionals for parents to speak with and learn more about foster care or adoption.

One professional hopes this event will help to educate the community about foster care and who is eligible to be a foster parent.

This was the third year for the event.
